First received a phone call for the initial process, them a zoom online interview was done. After which you will be hired or rejected. The hiring process is very fast.

The hiring process starts well with an initial screening and final interview, but the post-interview stage shows a complete lack of organizational standards. Despite following up multiple times via email and social media, I was completely ghosted after a single, brief response, having been told they would update me soon, but they have not reached out ever since. Leaving a candidate hanging for weeks instead of sending a simple rejection is highly unprofessional and a major disrespect to my time. The job market is difficult, and companies must respect applicants' effort. I will never apply to HGS again, as they have shown clear red flags. An automated reply telling applicants to contact a support email does not hide how disorganized and unacceptable the communication framework is, and the fact that candidates are being treated as entirely disposable data. I am sharing this to provide transparency for future candidates. After completing the final interview stage, communication completely ceased. Despite following up, I received no update. Candidates invest a lot of time into this process, and there should be accountability regarding basic communication. I hope this review serves as a necessary wake-up call for how people are treated. There is a clear double standard in the recruitment process. Communication is only given to accepted applicants, while rejected and backup candidates are completely ghosted. It truly makes one wonder how a company's customers would feel if they knew how poorly job candidates are treated behind the scenes. There must be professional accountability for this level of disorganization, and I am speaking out so future candidates know exactly what to expect.
