I had a great experience during the initial phone screen with the recruiter. From the beginning, they were warm, professional, and well-prepared. They took the time to walk me through the role, the team structure, and what the hiring process would look like moving forward. What really stood out was how they made the conversation feel more like a two-way dialogue rather than just a checklist of questions. They asked thoughtful questions about my experience and goals, and they genuinely listened to my responses. I appreciated their transparency and willingness to answer all my questions honestly, especially around company culture and growth opportunities. Kelly was a great first impression of the company!
