Interview
Went for 3 interviews or should I say 4? I was invited to go for 1st intw the next day, which is quite pleasant experience and followed-up with a deck as requested. The 2nd intw, though was for another position avail which they are considering me for, in which I was quite interested in after hearing the interviewer's personal account of her job.
Shortly after I left the office at the end of teh 2nd intw, I was told to go back and meet another exec who's part of the team hiring this 2nd position. Fine, since I was still in the vicinity.
Here comes my last interview, which I felt was a pretty good sign, and it started off nicely as well, talking about future development plans. But then I felt I was being called out rather than question on my past job experiences, which I felt was an indication the interviewer was not as keen to hire me.
It used to be a callback within a week for the next interview, but the bad news was only delivered to me after I followed-up on my status 3weeks later.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
You left shortly in your last job, this doesn't seem to show you have resilience. How do we know if you would stay, since you seem to get bored so easily, but our work here is routine, repetitive.

Interview
I had an interview with a woman first which went very well. She was very polite and professional. But then a man interviewed me afterwards. He was very disrespectful and rudely UNPROFESSIONAL. He showed 0 interest in my resume and background from the get go as soon as he entered the room and wouldn’t let me speak about my experience. He was very rude and cut me off several times and made me feel like I came in for absolutely no reason and was wasting my time. And he basically brushed me off.
The job description was completely different from what he said it was. This makes me believe that there is poor communication in the office and between NYC and headquarters. If this is how most people are at the company then I wouldn’t even want to apply at this company ever again. Awful. Very disrespectful. I can’t even see the brand in a positive light anymore. I would not recommend people to apply if you don’t want to be treated this way. Get it together.
