Infoblox interview questions

This has been the strangest process. A recruiter reached out to me to interview for a role and I was happy to speak to learn more. They then administer an IQ test( red flag #1), and set me up for another interview with the manager. We spoke for a little over an hour where she went into detail of why the position was open, Previous person was let go and even describing his nationality/ethnicity. As a woman of color( red flag #2). She made also another comment about millennials. Other things were discussed but we finished by establishing I was the only one in the running but they wanted to find 2 other people at least to compare me and the process would be no less than a month and a half. Overall the interview left a bad taste in my mouth and I figured out this was not a culture fit at all and probably a toxic work environment. Ultimately, I requested to withdraw my candidacy the following day. In this market, candidates will not wait . I’d recommend developing more effective recruiting processes.

The recruiting team made me do some online test first to assess my abilities, while the test was nothing related to my expertise or skills. Had a phone interview with the hiring manager after the assessment, and I was took in for a panel interview as the last round. Things seemingly went well, as they asked for my preferences, and then they just ghosted me for one and half month no matter how many times I've followed up. Finally, the recruiter came back and told me the position was no longer needed. I guess that tells you a lot about the company and their culture.
