Great experience working with the recruiters and hiring team at The RealReal. Interviews were conversational, I was always informed of next steps and everyone was extremely friendly. The process moved quickly and helped influence my decision to join the company after receiving the offer.

6 interviews total. Two were duplicates with the same person on different days. I was reached out to by the recruiter and had a pleasant introductory call. The process moved quickly after that and I had 6 interviews in less than two weeks, including an interview that was on a Saturday. After the final interview I was told that I would hear something by the next day. A week passed and I followed up with the recruiter. I received a prompt response that no decision had been made. I reached out again after another week had passed and received no response. It has been nearly 3 weeks since the last contact. Ghosting is the game this company likes to play, as others have mentioned. I respect any company’s decision to choose the most qualified candidate, but please have the decency to let someone know they did not receive the position after putting so much time in. It’s too easy to go onto LinkedIn and see if someone else was chosen. I honestly consider this experience a bullet dodged. I wouldn’t want to work for a company that takes so much of your time only to not have the courtesy to follow up and close a candidate out. Not to mention, some of the interviews were completely unproductive and unnecessary in my opinion. One of the interviewers repeated every question they asked me in the previous interview with them, as if they had not paid attention the first time. On the positive, the manager that would be the chosen candidate’s boss was extremely courteous, personable and a delight to speak with. They were the only reason I was able to overlook any other bad vibes I was getting. Moral of the story: Run away. Don’t waste your time.
