Unengaging, and disrespectful in setup. . . . At least for this role, the first interview step was a one-way video interview. As a recruiter myself, I was immediately turned off by it, assuming it meant there would be as little human interaction with candidates as possible. But, then they shared with me the questions ahead of time, and I realized there certainly is something to be said about that ability to prepare on top of easing nerves by not talking to a person directly. However, in the email, I was told to prepare an estimate of 30 minutes for my answers. (Perfect - I naturally had just about that length. And, I knew I was very qualified for the role in this specific industry (this was a recruiter role; I have the insights).) However, once I logged on to record, the system told me I would have only three minutes to answer each question before being cut off. . . . 15 minutes total, not 30. Luckily, the system does allow an interviewee three takes for each question, as well as, allegedly, to close the tab and come back later. Still, I had to spend multiple more hours parsing down my answers and re-rehearsing before recording. The incorrect preparation information was beyond frustrating, but I felt good about what I submitted, and I planned to share my experience in a potential following conversational interview, recruiter to recruiter. Instead, after two business days, I received a rejection email with zero details. As a recruiter, I completely understand the inability to provide reasoning to all candidates (for various reasons), and I do place some sort of responsibility on all applicants to understand their level of qualification, based on the job description and additional research. But, you can only place some responsibility on an interviewee (with a qualified application) to understand on their own when they've had the opportunity to actually discuss the role's needs. Unfortunately, this proved my initial hesitancies to be true, and gave me yet another real-world example of how important a holistic interview/CRM process is. . . . And I'll be taking that care and knowledge elsewhere. As a recruiter that cares about best practices and effectively managing a CRM, I won't be applying for future roles as long as they have such a system in place.
