Connected to a recruiter via email through an internal contact, and we set up a phone call for the following week. She asked what I was looking for in a role, what my interests and skills were, then shared she had one opening for an Online Account Manager role, working to retain and grow restaurant partners. I said I would be interested and we scheduled a video interview for that Friday. I had to follow up a few times to get the job description in writing and the details for the interview, in which she kept calling me by the wrong name despite it being in my email address. One day before, I was told the interviewer would need to reschedule for Monday. The interviewer logged into the call 10 minutes late and spent the first 2-3 minutes complaining about how hard it was to find a conference room in their office, and wanted to make sure I was VERY aware that she was actually crouching in the corner in order to be on this call with me. A few additional red flags: She asked about my interest in the company and role, and I gave a fairly detailed answer about it aligning with the impact I want to have on the industry and people/partners involved. She said, “Well, that could be said about a lot of other companies. Is there someone at us specifically that interests you?” When I asked her the same question at the end of the interview (she had shared she’d just joined Uber Eats after 7 years at another tech company) she gave me THE EXACT SAME answer, nearly verbatim. Speaking of her former employer, when I asked what prompted her move, she spent a solid few minutes tearing her former company to shreds (a company where I was also interviewing) with a passion. Finally, at about 3 minutes to the end of the interview, she abruptly said her computer was about to die so she needed to sign off without so much as a “thanks for you time”, and that was that. I wasn’t surprised to receive a call from the recruiter 2 days later saying I would not be moving on to the next round, and that they felt my skills and experiences would be best utilised at something more at the enterprise level.
