QuestBridge interview questions

Screening call with hiring manager. Interviewer read from a list of questions. It felt very corporate-like and it was hard to connect with the interviewer. For a non-profit that works with high schoolers and college students they were surprisingly dull.

I was deeply disappointed with the process. I applied one month and was invited to an initial phone screen a few weeks later. The phone screen felt promising and approximately two weeks after that I was invited to a Zoom interview with the hiring manager. After a successful (it felt) interview I was told I would hear about next steps within two weeks. Unfortunately, they ghosted me for lack of a better word. After two interviews and multiple emails from me checking in about my status I believe that professional courtesy would allow me to have heard back from them, even for a rejection. I have worked in this field for nearly a decade and have interacted with this organization in my previous work and did not realize that ghosting candidates was part of how they moved. I realize that an employer is juggling a lot during the interview process, but I do believe that seeing candidates as people with timelines that matter as well is important. I would have expected more professionalism.
