Bullhorn seems like a wonderful company - and one that I wanted to work for initially. Based on their interview process, I do think there is a disconnect between the leadership teams and they could do a better job developing proper strategies and communicating together. I initially had a phone interview. Nothing was tough about this, standard questions. She told me when she would email me regarding an in-person interview and she did that. It was scheduled a few weeks out based on both of our availability. I came in and was informed the recruiter I spoke with had taken a new job so I met someone else in HR. I then met with three different people on the sales team (management and someone in the role). Overall, I thought it went pretty well. I also had to retake the online assessment at the end (I truly dislike companies that use this as a measure of ability to do this kind of role) and got a tour of the office - which was cool. Post interview is where things got fuzzy. My new recruiting contact sent me a nice email to introduce herself and the following week requested I get 5 references to fill out an online survey. I quickly did that. We then went back and forth for awhile with her basically expressing she had no updates yet. Ultimately, I received a phone call about two weeks after the interview that they were not going with any of the candidates, including me. They had determined they need someone with experience in the staffing/recruiting industry. Since Bullhorn develops software for THAT industry themselves, they should know better than to have asked me for those references (especially 5 of them!) Companies simply shouldn't make you or your references spend that amount of time on someone they were never interested in in the first place. They should have spoken as a team before asking for that from me and determined if they were serious about moving forward. This was extremely disappointing and a situation I've never faced with a company before. I truly hope they fix & improve their processes.

Very thorough interview process where I got to meet a lot of the key players including future colleagues. The panel interview was a bit intimidating, but I appreciated the chance to meet with senior leadership.
