Set-up a phone interview using an automated platform. Once it was scheduled the recruiter cancelled and asked to reschedule. The phone interview lasted 1 minute - the recruiter told me the role had just been filled and explained she wanted to tell me by phone. Actually it would have been much more courteous to just cancel the call altogether - saving me the time to prep and the trouble to block my schedule to take the call! Not professional.

Don't know if I"m done with the process yet but so far I have seen a couple of things that really concerned me. In my phone interview the interviewer was rude and kind of hung up on me when I said their salary level wasn't where I was looking at for a role of this magnitude. I was surprised I was asked to have a second phone interview. The second phone interview went well but then I met in person with two other executive assistants. They were either already sold on another candidate, didn't know how to do interviews very well or were very uptight that day. They didn't interact with me, kept looking at their pre-prepared questions and were not engaging at all. Kind of a turn off for a candidate since I felt like I had to keep the energy going in the room and they presented like they had other things they wanted to be doing. We shall see if I come back but it has not been overly impressive with the non-senior staff members I've had interactions with. It's too bad because the role itself has a lot going for it and they really do need someone strong in the position.
