I scheduled a phone screen with the recruiter from Taco Bell. Very conversational interview with no questions asked other than “tell me about your last professional experience”. They were very upbeat and friendly, I was told why they were hiring and what the role would entail, along with all the steps of the hiring process. Then the recruiter name dropped 6 names of their leadership team, and continued to name drop a handful of others I’d be potentially working with. I was told she would schedule my next 30 minute interview with the hiring manager. Then I was given a full rundown of professional experiences of each individual she name dropped, along with letting me know she would send me the job description once more and even offered to help me prepare for my interview with the hiring manager since she liked me and wanted to see me succeed. I had asked a few questions and then she asked if there was anything else I’d like for her to give to the hiring manager about my background. In which I provided a clear answer. I was told she would reach out to me within 4-5 days of my phone screen. I followed up on the Monday after my Friday interview to thank her for her time and express my continued interest. I was ghosted and never received any further communication.
