      Director of Accounting Interview

      Jan 17, 2019
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Foster City, CA
      Declined offer
      Negative experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Gilead Sciences (Foster City, CA) in Jan 2019

      Interview

      30 mins with each person. The big wig sounded fine and normal but her next 2 managers sounded bitter, unhappy, and lacked direction. One person said that she did not want to be managed by someone who is not going to talk to her. The other person asked questions like a sargeant rapidly and didn't wait for me to finish my sentences or ask any questions. Then the last 2 people did not even show up for the interview. They completely flaked, forgot about me, and didn't even bother to check into the conference room where I sat for 30 minutes to let me know that they are not going to interview me. I basically walked myself out the door instead. I let my recruiter know and he was told that the last 2 people to interview me were so busy and yes, they forgot about me. So unprofessional.
