Where to begin? I have never had such an awkward, uncomfortable interview from the very second I logged on to the Zoom call. The 3 people that interviewed me did not smile ONCE in the interview and did not match my energy whatsoever. While I was talking about wanting a good team to work with and to collaborate with (considering this is a marketing role), they displayed no traits that would lead me to believe they were even remotely enjoyable to work with. One of the employees was having Wi-Fi issues during the call, and the others on the call acted extremely annoyed with their issues-- definitely not an interaction that would lead me to believe that this would be a good working environment. Everything that I was asked was met with push-back-- and I don't mean that they were asking me to expand on my answers (which they did, which is fine), but they acted like they didn't like anything they said and basically put me down for all of my answers. I felt like I kept having to defend my answers because they weren't to their liking. I have been told many times that I'm a great interviewee, so this was all around a challenging and weird experience for me. I lasted 50 minutes in the interview before the man who was obviously the manager/leading the interview went into a tangent about how I should NOT be looking to be comfortable in a job, which is one of the traits I suggested I was looking for in a work environment-- being comfortable with those that I work with and being able to openly ask questions. Once he was done with his tangent and asked me if I had any questions, I went on to reiterate (or defend) that I did not expect the job to be "comfortable" or easy, but that I wanted a work environment that I could be comfortable in. I then let the interviewers know that I did not have any questions for them and that I was no longer interested in the role. I thanked them for their time and told them to have a good day. I now know why this position has been open for 2+ months -- I can't imagine anyone interviewing for this position and being excited or interested in working with a team that lacked even an ounce of warmth or personality-- especially for a client-facing role. Yikes. A general tip for HR if they even read these: might want to have your marketing team work on best interview practices. That was a disaster and a waste of everyone's time.
