      Copywriter Interview

      7 Aug 2018
      Anonymous interview candidate
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Ancestry

      Interview

      Applied online and got email from recruiter two weeks later. Her message said she was going on vacation the following week but to click her calendar link and I could schedule for the week after. I clicked the link and it indicated she was busy all day everyday for several months. I sent her a note saying I thought something was wrong with her calendar settings and to let me know when she fixed it. She never responded. Not even after she was back from vacation. Fine, whatever. A week and a half later I clicked the link again and lo-and-behold the calendar was fixed. I schedule some time and we spoke for 30 minutes. She was encouraging and told me I seemed like a good fit and that she'd schedule a second round interview for me. Then she ghosted me. I wrote to see what was up a week later. She never responded. Really? Super unprofessional. Save yourself the headache and apply elsewhere. Complete waste of time.
