Burning Man interview questions

The hiring process was....really bad and filled with red flags. I was screened, then conversation about process, then a TWO PAGE ESSAY, then two person interview, then another conversation about process, then, I kid you not, SIX SETS OF INTERVIEWS with two employees each, then a conversation about process, then an in person interview. PHEW. As an HR professional, it was wild to be put through this, and it was a huge red flag that they were PROUD of this process. No organization is that "special" to put people through that. The in-person interview (which took me 2 hours each way to get to) was hurried, the CEO was not very engaged. It was about 20 minutes long, after they'd made me wait almost an hour and then they hurried me out for their next meeting. It seemed like it was merely a formality in some sense, and I found out 2 days later that they are "going in a different direction with the role". So....9 interviews, 2 pages of essays, and a whole day to go visit for 20 minutes and they apparently didn't even make a hire. They obviously knew they were "going in a different direction" long before I even went to the office. Really poor strategic planning to go through all that, and it shows a poor appreciation of candidates and potential employees. Handling of the communication was pretty unprofessional.

Long, but worth it. 5 interviews with 2 people on each call that lasted 45 minutes each. They really try to understand who they're hiring ane that you'll fit among the core values of Burning Man Project.
