The interview started on a reasonable note; there was genuine dialogue, feedback was exchanged, and compensation was discussed, which felt like a positive sign.
The issue came when I tried to respond to a concern raised about my fit. Rather than engaging with my perspective or relevant experience, the interviewer abruptly ended the call with no proper close.
Iâm not reviewing the outcome as rejections are part of the process. Iâm reviewing the conduct. Cutting off a candidate mid-conversation without basic courtesy is a red flag for how this company treats people generally. If this is how they handle interviews, itâs worth considering what that signals about the broader culture.
