Candidatei-me online. O processo levou 3 semanas. Fiz uma entrevista na empresa ARO.
Entrevista
The interview process initially felt promising - I went through multiple stages and was given positive feedback after each one, which made me believe the role was well within reach. At one stage, I was asked to prepare and present two separate 5-minute presentations, which was time-consuming and required significant effort.
However, after completing everything and even waiting longer than originally planned for a decision, I was told that the company had decided to “put the role on hold” to reassess what they were actually looking for. I’d also paused other opportunities during this time, only to find out the role I was applying for might not exist in its current form anymore.
To make matters worse, the feedback throughout was positive - yet in the end, they decided to put the role on hold entirely to "reassess" what they were hiring for. Despite all this, they said they still believe I’d be a great fit for the team and might reach out again once they decide what the role should be - essentially inviting me to go through the whole process again for a role that may or may not exist. It really felt like the company didn’t have clarity from the start, and that lack of direction led to a significant waste of time and opportunity.
This isn’t just a disappointing outcome - it’s a reflection of poor planning and communication, and unfortunately, the candidate is the one left to pay the price.
Advice to Future Candidates:
Be cautious about putting too much stock into this process. Even if you're told things are going well, the company may decide to restructure the role mid-process and leave you with no offer, no feedback, and no closure. If you're juggling other opportunities, keep them open - this isn’t a process to rely on.
Four Stages with different members of staff consisting of different tasks to prove I was the correct fit for the job. This was asking personal and professional questions throughout. Just as expected.
