The first conversation was with a technical recruiter who was great! She seemed super thoughtful and interested in getting to know me and what made me tick. After the initial conversation, I had a one-hour phone call with the hiring manager who wanted to spend that time seeing if we could get to know each other rather than focus on the mutual fit. When we were about 45 min into the conversation he asked me a question that I gave detail around and his response after was, "sorry i was just on slack can you repeat your answer." I at least appreciated his honesty but I almost ended the call right there. I was then asked to come onsite to meet him and a hiring manager so I could get a feel for the office and the team I could potentially partner with. After the onsite I never heard back one way or the other. I thought after spending three rounds with the team I'd at least get a response back even if it wasn't positive especially since it was recruiter to recruiter.

The candidate experience was GREAT. I saw the position online via LinkedIn. I applied and received an email a few days later from the hiring manager. Scheduled time to converse about my background and Flexport’s company culture. We hit it off well. She put me in contact with the HR Coordinator to schedule a Zoom conference video call with her team (4 ppl)(2 hour interview). A week later I was asked to come to the Atlanta office to meet a few more managers and team members. I received an offer 2 days later. Great interview process. Company kept me informed. No one dropped the ball.
