What’s the worst interview process experience you had so far?

I recently applied to Indian Fintech, first round went well. Got no response from HR for 3-4 days. Once I called her on 5th day, she told me that I had cleared first round and they will assignment next day. Assignment didn’t arrive for 2 more days. HR stopped picking my calls. After this I reached out to third party recruiter (who started the process initially). She contacted this company HR and they sent me assignment next day.

I had to complete it in 48 hour strict timeline. Spent entire 2 days on it and barely slept. I submitted it on time.

After this no reply from HR for 4 days. Finally I reached out to my interviewer from first round for help. He said he will remind HR.

Next day I got call from HR that all open positions are closed and we will consider u in future. No feedback on assignment was given. Not even sorry for making u wait.

Isn’t the only thing HRs need to be good at is people handling & professional communication?

name and shame.

Help out fellow interviewee here to not hold hopes when we apply to that specific company. Had grapevine allowed, I would even name the HR person

Headout and Noise - disinterested and under qualified pathetic interviewers. And ghosting me after ending the call with “we’ll share the assignment with you”.

One recruiter missed the scheduled call set up BY HER on 3 seperate occasion, would expect me to be available whenever she dropped me a call. And had the gall to go complain to the person who referred me that I was unresponsive.
She still keeps calling me to schedule an interview 🤡
