Head of Engineering Interview Experience

Process

I applied through a recruiter. The process took two weeks.

I got contacted by an internal recruiter who organised an interview. A couple of hours before the interview they texted me to tell me they were sick and wouldn't be able to make it. I was ghosted after that. One month later another recruiter reached out for a much more junior position. I explained the situation, and I was ghosted again. It was a really useless business.
