The interview process was one of the least transparent and least respectful I’ve experienced. I was fast‑tracked straight to an in‑person interview, had a long conversation with the hiring manager, and was asked to send follow‑up questions ... all signals that I was being seriously considered. After that, communication simply stopped. No update, no closure, no acknowledgment, nothing. For a firm that emphasizes culture and professionalism, the lack of basic follow‑through was disappointing. If this is how they handle candidates they actively recruit and accelerate, it raises concerns about how internal communication and leadership alignment function day‑to‑day. This specific role has been open for about a year, and the hiring manager mentioned she “just can’t find the right fit,” which at this point makes it feel like they’re searching for a unicorn rather than a real candidate. Unless you happen to possess the ability to magically become the “perfect fit” they’ve been chasing for twelve months, be prepared to invest time and effort only to be ghosted. After 8 weeks of being ignored by HR with no update or closure, I ultimately emailed them myself to formally withdraw from the process.
