The recruiter reached out to me on LinkedIn in August 2025. We had a nice initial call and I was left waiting for them to pass info to a hiring manager. I messaged them a few times during next couple weeks only getting "Sorry for the delay." so I forgot about them. Then, more than a month after our call, I received a letter from someone from Beam Impact inviting me to schedule a hiring manager interview. I went to their calendar to only find out that the next available day is in 12 days. Weird but fine with me. It was actually a pretty pleasant convo with their co-founder and CTO Alex. However, it didn't seem like a regular hiring manager interview. We only talked about my current role and I don't even remember a single tech question. All convo was around how the work processes built in my company/team, how I communicate with clients, etc. At the end I asked her why they got interested in me as a candidate and got a genuine answer: "I don't know. I'm not a hiring manager. She's on vacation." She said she would pass the hiring manager her notes and they would contact me after. A week passed with no letters. I followed up with an email (any updates for me?) but got no response. It's been 3 months since our interview so I think it's fair to guess that they have nothing for me to say and I may leave this review here.
