      Business Development Interview

      Jan 14, 2020
      Anonymous Interview Candidate
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2+ months. I interviewed at CarGurus

      Interview

      I was referred by an employee. I spoke to an internal recruiter who seemed to be multitasking and forgot to put their phone on mute while having a side conversation. Then I was referred to someone to schedule an interview with the VP that the position reported to. They were incredibly slow in replying and set up times with me while the VP was traveling, meaning they didn't ever confirm with him that he was actually available. I was stood up. Twice. Then I spoke with the VP who apologized for this but knew nothing about me. The collection of white millennials running this talent acquisition shop is rife with unprofessional behavior and an inability to undue their biases to higher people severely similar to them as the gatekeepers.

      Definitely taking this review to heart as sounds like we missed on a number of standards that we’ve strived to make foundational in the Talent team. Sincere apologies for your experience and what must feel like a disrespect of your time and candidacy. We certainly owe(d) you our undivided attention, as well as timely, helpful feedback and context throughout. Beyond best practices, a key priority has been to build a TA team representative of the diverse and inclusive company we are striving to build. While we are proud of our progress so far, this will always be a key focus. We’d love the opportunity to make this right, please feel free to reach out to me at chixon@cargurus.com if we can confidentially discuss in more detail, or help in any way. Thanks again for your candor, we do not take this lightly and are always aiming to get better. Best, Chad
