I applied online. I interviewed at Zero Impact Solutions (Costa Mesa, CA) in Sep 2024
Interview
Very easy, I had a phone interview, in-person interview where I got to speak with other direct team members, and then a final phone interview with the CEO. It was mostly a good and normal experience until the final phone interview with the CEO. It felt unprofessional and I could hear the irritation in having to fulfill the position I was applying for. He had asked "how do I know you're not going to leave?" and then went on a rant about how quickly people take offers then resign.

Interview
I found this to be a bad experience due to unprofessionalism and lack of information of a very important factor of the job. The job was posted for a Sr. Human Resources Manager, I applied and was contacted to interview. The interviewer asked me a couple of questions, including if I saw the pay scope on the job. I gave him the pay scope noted on the job posting and he told me that the pay scope had been "revamped" since I applied. It went from 100k-125k to 75k-85k. He proceeded to ask if this was in my pay scope. I rearranged my schedule to make myself available for this interview to find out that they had drastically changed the compensation on this position and in fact changed the title by removing the "Senior" part of the original job post that I had applied to. Since this very important factor had changed after I applied and was contacted to interview, it would have been greatly appreciated to be given this information before they called me. I received 3 reminders about the interview. They could have sent me the change in pay as well, then neither one of us would have wasted our time. I find this to be unprofessional and it falls in line with all of the negative comments I see posted from current and previous employees about the operation of the business.

Interview
The first initial interview was a phone call and overall a large waste of time. The recruiter/talent manager was late, then proceeded to pull up my resume while on the phone, and say "ummmm" as they read questions off a prompt. They also asked me pretty much everything I marked on the application.
