A recruiter reached out to me for my availability for a phone interview. I didn’t receive a response. After 2 weeks, I followed up and the recruiter apologized and once again ended up ghosting me. I’m not surprised that after 3 months this role is still open. You lose really good candidates when recruiters don’t follow up and your resume ends up in a black hole.
I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Lime (Nashville, TN) in Jan 2022
Interview
Some boiler plate questions, but a friendly recruiter nonetheless. I'd say it took about 45 min to complete. They asked a lot about my experience and how it pertained to the role being offered.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Describe a time you had to handle conflict in the workplace.
Recruiter call:
Introduction of myself
Introduction of the company (lime), the position and responsibilities
Questions on qualifications
Time for questions at the end on the position, working culture, anything else. --> Answers from recruiter followed standard startup lingo. I asked probing questions to get a better sense of the working culture and still felt like I had to read between the lines.
