Video call. 30 min. Recruiter was prepared and great to interview with. Explained steps, expectations and left me feeling like I nailed the interview. The hiring manager declined to meet with me and the interview process went no further. Reached out for clarification and feedback but got the usual response.

I was invited to participate in an initial phone screening with Phenom. After researching the company and learning about their work in talent experience and hiring technology, I was genuinely excited about the opportunity and the interview process. The representative who conducted the screening was pleasant and professional, although the conversation felt very fast-paced. The interviewer spoke quickly, which made the interaction feel somewhat rushed and created the sense that there was a large amount of material to cover in a short time. What surprised me most was the lack of follow-up communication after the screening. Given that Phenom specializes in candidate experience and automated hiring workflows, I expected at minimum a confirmation, update, or rejection notification following the interview. I have interviewed with other companies that use Phenom’s platform and experienced structured, automated follow-up communication, which made the absence of communication in this case particularly unexpected. As a company focused on improving the hiring experience for its clients, I had hoped to see that same level of consistency reflected in their own recruiting process.
