A full day of round table interviews with potential team members and folks in other departments. I had to use a sick day in order to go. It was over 5 hours.

The interview process at Vail Resorts started off great. I had two phone interviews with Vail Resorts. The first interview was with a recruiter which was basically a nice talk about my past, why I am interested in the company, and what qualified me for the position. The recruiter told me right away that I seemed like a good fit for the position and scheduled another phone interview with the manager. The second interview went very well too. I was asked more job specific questions such as describing projects which related to the tasks I would be doing. After a 30 minute talk the manager told me that she had 2 more interviews scheduled and would get back to me with a decision by the end of the week. After 2 weeks I still did not hear from them and tried contacting both, the recruiter and manager and neither one reacted. I tried emailing and calling but was not able to reach anyone. After more than a month (!!!) the recruiter finally wrote a rather impersonal email stating that they found someone else. I understand if there was someone else with better qualifications but they let me wait over a month and also put the job back on their career page. Overall just a very disappointing outcome and very frustrating experience.
