I applied online, had a phone screen with the hiring manager, and was invited into the office to interview. The manager was incredibly down to earth, approachable, and nice. I had previously informed them of my salary expectations and thought that was no issue. After a 15 minute critical thinking test and 3 hour interview with the team, I thought everything was great. When they made me an offer it was significantly less than I had previously mentioned, which they knew going into my interview. They didn't budge on negotiations. A huge waste of my time.

I had a phone interview with the Hiring Manager for this position. Based on the job description, it seemed I might have been qualified for this role, but the questions that I was asked throughout the phone screen indicated that they were looking for someone with quite a different background than what I had. It became clear to me early in the conversation that I was not a fit for this role. Based on the tone of the conversation, it was obvious that the Hiring Manager did not want to move forward. I was very aware I would not be moving forward in the interview process. I did find it quite rude that I never received a follow-up email regarding the rejection. It should be standard courtesy to close the loop with a candidate - especially after taking a half hour of their time to drill them with questions that were not relevant to their previous experience.
