Clubhouse interview questions

Applied because I had a network/contact at Clubhouse whom I had worked with at a previous job. I included this information in my application. I got an immediate rejection notice. They didn't even bother to talk to my contact there; yet I'm fully qualified for the position. Really shady. You probably want to pass on this organization.

I had a brief interview with a recruiter, and then they ghosted me. I tried being proactive and reaching back out to them a week later, nada. Sounds like they aren't doing well these days anyway. Not sure if the equity part of their compensation would be worthwhile.
