      Executive Assistant Interview

      May 8, 2019
      Anonymous interview candidate
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I interviewed at Ciena in Mar 2019

      Interview

      I was headhunted via LinkedIn and then contacted by their Talent Acquisition team in London. I had 1 phone interview and 1 video interview over one week. That was over one month ago and I still haven't received any feedback at all. Very very poor way of communicating with the candidates, just doesn't give a good impression of the business. Really not impressed by their recruitment process, absolutely no regret.

      I interviewed at Ciena (Hanover, MD)

      Interview

      The interview process was smooth. Meetings were scheduled efficiently and they were willing to work around my schedule. I spoke to a recruiter, a few people who would be my peers and the hiring manager.
