      Director Interview

      16 July 2012
      Anonymous employee
      Westford, MA
      Accepted offer
      Positive experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied through a recruiter. The process took 5 weeks. I interviewed at Red Hat (Westford, MA) in Jan 2009

      Interview

      The interview process is detailed and long. You will meet with several people over a period of time. It may feel like a long process but Red Hat is thorough in it's interviewing.

      Director Interview

      31 July 2018
      Anonymous interview candidate
      No offer
      Negative experience

      Application

      I interviewed at Red Hat

      Interview

      Interview process began when I came across the role and reached out to the recruiter via LinkedIn. He was very quick to respond and we set up a time to talk. It was clear pretty quickly I was a good fit based on my background. He then set up a call with his boss, the head of Talent Acquisition. We talked and he was already discussing flying me down to Raleigh NC to their HQ for an on site interview... Great! I took a day and a half out my schedule to fly down, spend the day in interviews, then fly back. I thought the on site interviews all went really well. Here's where it went downhill. They promised me I'd hear something by the end of the week... Nothing. I follow up... Nothing. I do one more gentle follow up.... Nothing. Then, over two weeks after my on site, I get a call with an update. I respect that at this point they were transparent, and were down to me and one other candidate, but at no point apologized for going silent for 2+ weeks. They promised to get back to me by the end of the week... Then, you guessed it- nothing. It's now been 19 days since that last call, with not a single update. Obviously I'm guessing at this point they've moved on with the other candidate, but really poor form to treat a candidate like that, after I took significant time out of my schedule to fly down and meet with your team.

      Blue Jeans session with Sr Manager to ask about my background and qualifications. The session was done with a software that kept echoing and was very difficult to use. I did an in person interview in the office with another area VP.
