I applied online. I interviewed at First Student

Interview

I quickly responded to a voicemail and email request for a screening call and scheduled it promptly. Had a great call and was told they were delighted to move me to the 2nd step which was an interview the following week. Before the day ended, I followed up with a thank you email and a week later after not hearing anything, reached out asking if any additional info was needed. I got a very short reply back and nothing since. Emailed at the two-week mark to tell them I, unfortunately, need to withdraw my application. No keeping the candidates warm in my experience -felt abandoned. I know my worth and felt like the culture wouldn't work for me.

The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at First Student (Waterbury, CT)

Interview

I applied through LinkedIn and sent a message over to the recruiter. Two days later I received a phone call. First was a 15 minute screening. Next was a 4 person panel asking mostly people management questions and what-if scenarios. Then I heard nothing for 2 weeks. Yesterday I got another interview offer (hopefully the last), hopefully I do well and get the job?

Office Administrator

I have my 1st in person interview soon. Besides doing my homework on the company and position and making sure I look professional what else do I need? It is for a large, professional insurance company. I used to print a copy of my resume on a nice, thicker paper as well as a list of references and put them in a folder and leave it with the interviewer. Is this dumb? Everything is electronic now and I am worried about getting the position at all and I don't want to come off as old fashioned.

Is it rude to respond to recruiters with the suggested “no thanks” LinkedIn message?
