I was an employee referral and was emailed to set up a time to talk. The recruiter was late. After talking it was my turn to ask questions. She got very defensive when I brought up reviews on Glassdoor. That was a very big red flag for me. Would have been a great fit for the company. However no one ever called back. No word whatsoever. Pretty unprofessional of a company, especially as a employee referral.

Was contacted by a recruiter for Client Service Manager opportunity. Had phone screen with hiring manager to discuss the position and it went well. Face-to-face was an entirely different experience. There were 5 people in the room questioning me, one of whom had done the phone screen. She seemed to forget I was a candidate for the manager position and opened by stating to everyone I was an applicant for Client Services Specialist. I tried to respectfully correct her but it made for an awkward start. Through the interview the vibe from almost all 5 people was very snobbish, uppity, and cold. The interview format (5 vs. 1) was not conducive to genuinely getting to know me or my skill set. They bragged about nights working until midnight as though to test my reaction and gauge whether I'd be willing to give up any work-life balance to take this job. When the time came for me to ask questions, I was cut off after just a few minutes and told our time was up. They seemed to forget (or basically, not care) that an interview is a two-way street and the candidate is not just there for a job, but to assess whether the company is the right career fit for them as well. Informed by recruiter I did not get the position and their feedback included comments that I only seemed interested in a management role - um, yes, that's what I applied for and I had no interest in making a lateral move from the amazing company I was employed with at the time (which the folks at accesso were quick to put down during our interview). Was merely exploring an opportunity to move up the career ladder after the recruiter contacted me about accesso's CSM role. In the end they were overall very disorganized and unprofessional, and it was unfortunately a waste of time.
