I progressed through three rounds of interviews with Harrow and was told I would receive a decision by a specific date. That update never came. I ultimately had to reach out myself to get any information on my status as a candidate.
It was disappointing to invest significant time preparing and interviewing only to be met with silence at a critical point in the process. Follow-through and clear communication are foundational to a positive candidate experience, and it’s difficult to take a hiring process seriously when those basics aren’t upheld.
Ironically, everything worked out for the best—I landed at a far superior company with a far more professional hiring process. But for a company that emphasizes culture and “family,” Harrow should reevaluate how it treats candidates during recruitment. Consistent communication and respect for applicants’ time would go a long way.

I had Multiple interviews. A recruiter, HR, VP of sales and the NSD, 2 personality tests, even did a reference check. They ghosted me. Wouldn’t return any of my emails after the final interview. Found the process somewhat unprofessional.

Lots of red flags as I went through the process. First, benefits are lagging the industry norms. SIX MONTHS waiting period to participate in 401k, you have to accrue PTO and only up to 15 days your first year, and the role is required to be in office 3 days a week, even though most of the company is remote.
Second, I was told multiple times that there was an expectation to be working at night because that's what the executive team would require. I understand being available when fires come up, but I got the distinct impression that it's more the norm at Harrow.
Third, as part of the recruitment process, everyone does a Predictive Index Cognitive Test. That is pretty risky because businesses can definitely have some legal backlash if those test have any adverse impact on protected groups. This is always a big red flag to me when I hear companies doing that without much validation for the reason. Businesses have to be able to prove predictive validity with these tests!
All of these factors had me ready to withdraw from the process, but I participated in the next interview for extra interview practice. It was honestly one of the worst interview experiences that I have ever had. She made ZERO attempts to connect on ANY level, which gave me the impression that she had zero desire to be on the call. She skipped intros and niceties and went straight to "this is the agenda for the call." She then read textbook interview questions off a paper like "What is your greatest strength/weakness?" and "Why should we hire you".
I'm not entirely sure if she came into the interview with some sort of bias against me or if she is just very inexperienced with conducting interviews, but I got the impression it was one of the two.
