The interview process involved multiple conversations with the recruiter and the Client Success Manager I would have reported to. The recruiter was genuinely helpful and encouraged me to reach out with questions once the offer was made. After the offer was extended, communication became confusing and scattered. I was told to either email several people at once or call individuals directly. Because the deadline to accept was very tight and I had questions about compensation, start date flexibility, and contract language, I chose to call to get clarity more quickly while still working a demanding full-time 9–5 role. On the day of a follow-up call with the Client Success Manager, one of my client’s sites went down and I joined the call 15 minutes late. I immediately apologized, explained the situation, and took full accountability. The tone of the conversation shifted abruptly, and I was asked emotionally charged questions such as, “Are you even excited about this role?” and “How do you not know what a wellness day is?” I was told everything was fine and that my questions would be discussed internally. About 10 minutes later, I was asked to rejoin the call and the offer was rescinded. I was told there were multiple reasons for the decision, but no specifics could be shared. When I later spoke with the recruiter, she expressed surprise at how the conversation had gone and shared that I had been viewed as professional and a strong candidate. It was implied that the decision was likely related to me being late to the call. I’m sharing this for those considering joining the company. Human error is inevitable, and the lack of understanding and professionalism during the offer stage gave me pause about what working under this manager might be like. I hope this helps others make an informed decision.
