I applied online. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at Wolters Kluwer (Atlanta, GA) in Aug 2017
Interview
Very long and drawn out (over 3 months). They give you a verbal offer then a written offer. After they have dragged their feet for so long you have 72 hours to accept their offer or it is void.
Ultimately I failed the background check. It was supposed to be 7 years but they looked back almost 8 and found a felony conviction over 7 years old. Yes I know my conviction is my own fault but if the background check was truly 7 years or they would have done the background check one month later...nothing would have shown up.
I was told the background check was 7 otherwise i would not have even applied.

I applied online. I interviewed at Wolters Kluwer in Apr 2025
Interview
I appreciated the initial outreach, as it showed interest in my profile. Unfortunately, after missing the initial call (due to scheduling conflicts) and promptly responding with my availability, the communication stopped entirely.
Despite several polite follow-up emails over the next few weeks inquiring about next steps, I received no response. After more than a month, the recruiter finally replied, noting that my profile had positive feedback but the team had been holding the position for another candidate who ultimately accepted the offer.
The extended period of silence made the process feel disorganized and left me uncertain about my status. A quick update or acknowledgment during that time would have been helpful and more in line with standard professional practices.
Pros: Initial recruiter outreach was proactive and indicated a good fit for my skills.
Cons: Lack of timely communication after the initial contact.
Advice to Management: Consider implementing better protocols for candidate updates, even if brief, to respect applicants' time and enhance the overall candidate experience. This could help maintain a positive reputation in a competitive talent market.
