Lengthy 10-week wait after application before being contacted with any feedback. Very professional HR interaction after contacted for interview. Flown in late the prior day for one-day, on-site interview with four individuals: HR rep, potential peer, internal customer, and hiring manager's peer. I was completely flexible in the scheduling of this interview, but was disappointed to find that the hiring manager was not present and had instead asked a peer to conduct the interview.
Interview questions were either cookie-cutter in the case of the hiring manager's peer or completely unprepared in the case of the potential peer. All of the interviewers seemed disinterested and unengaged. Despite HR flying me in for an on-site interview, I received the impression I was never seriously considered for the position by the hiring manager or interview team.
I was told that was "over-qualified" by the potential customer in my interview. When I asked why that would be a problem, interviewer seemed dumb-founded and provided no reason. I was never given a reason for failure to be selected for an offer, only receiving a boiler-plate rejection letter about a week after the interview. I was left to assume that I was either being discriminated against because of my age (I am well over 40 and the entire staff was younger) or the hiring manager was simply going though the motions to placate HR in order to hire an internal candidate.
