Applied online. Had to do a virtual job tryout. Then recruiter contacted me to set up a time for an initial interview. Recruiter started out strong saying this would be straight to the point and quick. That this job doesnt exist and its a "just in case" role to put you in the pipeline. Told me what the compensation was and its a take it or leave it situation. Theres no negotiation. Recruiter asked if i had experience with direct reports. I told her yes and she asked how many. Then she asked how many i currently have in my current job. I have no direct reports in my current role so she ended the interview even tho i have had upwards of 100 direct reports before. She did not care about my past district manager experience, only current. Received rejection email two days later.

The interview process has five different interviews. I love the in depth process. It starts with a half hour phone interview. Proceeds to a 2 hour in person interview. Proceeds to a 3 hour ride a long. Proceeds to another rin person interview and ends with a zoom interview. I spent a total of 9 hours combined in interviews and 3 hours round trip travel time for my in person. Was only sent a form letter rejection and was ghosted when asked for feedback.
