I was contacted by a Nielsen recruiter over three months after applying for a role there. We scheduled a phone screen, but the recruiter failed to show up for the first phone screen. I contacted her and a couple days later, she reached out to reschedule with no apology or explanation for her failure to attend. I dialed in for the rescheduled interview and once again, the recruiter failed to show up. I emailed her and asked her if she was able to join the call. After 10 minutes, she finally joined the call, again with no explanation or apology for her tardiness. It was probably the least professional phone screen I have ever had. She paused the interview to say bye to her friends leaving the office. I asked her if she liked working at Nielsen and she said "Welll..." - that should have been a huge sign for me right there. Then she finally said that it was a good place to work. A second recruiter contacted me a week later to tell me that first recruiter had left Nielsen (no surprise there!) and wanted to talk again about my interest in the role. Why they thought my interest would change over a week, I have no idea. The second recruiter was a bit more professional and told how the hiring manager was so impressed with my background and wanted to get me in as soon as possible for an interview. I sent my availability to talk with him. Days went by with no response, so I reached out to the recruiter again with more availability and was told yes, the hiring manager wanted to meet with me, but had been busy. Three days later, I got an automated rejection email saying they went with more qualified candidates. Complete cluster of an interview process - guess I dodged a bullet.
