      Marketing Interview

      Sep 24, 2019
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Chicago, IL
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Optimizely (Chicago, IL) in Aug 2019

      Interview

      I had 6 interviews with Episerver, including a phone screen with the recruiter. The whole process seemed to go smoothly. I shared feedback after each call and the recruiter echoed my thoughts each time. I get to what I think are the final stages and the whole thing comes to a screeching halt with no word from anyone. Wound up having to reach out to the recruiter after week or so and she told me she would have more information soon. Fast forward another THREE weeks and I have to reach out to her again for an update only to get a response saying they are no longer interested in me as a candidate. After 5+ interviews with a company, a basic and timely e-mail or call would have been appreciated. Very unprofessional.

      Thank you for your review. Our hiring decisions are indeed very important to us and with a global marketing team, sometimes scheduling interviews can be quite difficult so to accommodate busy schedules and various work hours. We appreciate your interest in Episerver and clearly we considered your candidacy strong for a marketing role on our team, having taken the time of many team members to chat with you. We always want to make sure that the hire is the right move for both our company and for the candidate’s career goals. We wish you all the best of luck in your job search and hope that you would continue to consider Epi again in the future.
