I had one call with a HR recruiter. Communication was prompt and professional. Good overview in the email of the process, timeline and who I'd be meeting with, excluding mention of the final round tasks. I found the actual interview itself completely lacking in substance and structure. I felt that I wasn't provided an environment to talk openly about how my experience is relevant to the role. The interview and conversation didn't flow and ultimately felt like a check box process. For example, the interview started with a 6 slides on SEMRush, all information that you'd expect the candidate to research as the bare minimum. I didn't learn anything new about the company. It was basically, he's our company, any questions? Additionally, it would be good to set an agenda and the purpose for the call so both parties know what they will get out of the call. Finally, when quizzed on the next steps, the recruiter said they would put my CV forward to the hiring manager and they'll decide whether they want to proceed. This essentially tells me that the interview was just for the sake of it, how can a hiring manager know what I can bring to the table if you're just going to send over my CV anyway, why bother speaking to me?
