I was initially reached out to on LinkedIn. This led to an in-person interview with the hiring manager, which unexpectedly included a second interview with a Sales VP. From there, I moved on to a ride-along that threw another surprise VP interview at me, which was... fine, I guess. During the ride-along, they asked me to make phone calls for the company and told me to set a meeting within an hour. The whole thing was pretty interesting - there were no clear instructions on how involved they wanted me to be in the customer meeting. I don't think the prospect even knew I was coming. So I had two options: sit there awkwardly like a lump on a log or engage in conversation. I chose to engage in conversation, lol. After all that? No feedback, no offer. Oh, and they told me they would pay me for the field ride, but I know I'll never see that money. I didn't feel comfortable asking about it when the recruiter called to tell me I didn't get the offer. Bottom line? This was a MASSIVE waste of time at a critical period in my job search.
