Process
After speaking with three different recruiters, I was set up on a phone call with the VP of Engineering. I spoke with her for 45 minutes - the conversation was pleasant enough. I sent a follow-up thank you note to two of the three recruiters I spoke to, and never heard back from anybody at Chewy. In essence, Chewy ghosted a candidate.
