My experience with OpenGov was very disappointing due to a lack of professionalism and communication throughout the hiring process. The recruiter was highly responsive and persistent when scheduling interviews and requesting information, but once the interviews were completed on their end or they no longer need you, communication stopped entirely. The interview process itself felt disorganized, with unclear expectations and coordination issues. Despite having what I believed were positive interviews and receiving encouraging feedback during the process, I was ultimately ghosted without any update, rejection, or explanation regarding the outcome. While I understand that hiring decisions can change, candidates deserve timely and transparent communication. Being left without any follow-up after investing significant time and effort in multiple interviews reflects poorly on the company's recruiting practices.

Process: 1) HR Interview 2) Director of Engineering Interview 3) Systems Design Interview 4) In Person AI Coding Challenge 5) VP of Engineering Interview. Before the In Person AI Coding Challenge, I was told that was going to be the last stage. After it, I was ghosted for a week and when I was contacted again, I was told about the need to meet with the VP of Engineering. They were late to that interview and it felt rushed. Received rejection email couple of days later
