An HR person contacted me by phone for a screening interview. I was then invited to attend a meeting in Denver with the hiring team in NY by video conference. A person from another team greeted me at the reception desk. Just weird that the HR person never met with me in person (pre-COVID) and incorrectly relayed the name of the hiring manager. Fast-forward--I received a job offer and the HR person told me the supposed manager would be following up with details about my start day. However, she never did, because she wasn't the hiring manager, just a member of the team that sat in on the interview. The day before I'm supposed to start, I finally emailed the supposed manager, who told me to contact another manager. Would have been good for the HR person to have given me accurate information, or even pretend to be interested in the onboarding process. My second day on the job, I received automated emails saying I'd be terminated by the next day if I didn't bring in the typical ID documents (which I'd actually photographed and uploaded to the company site before even starting). I write this now--two years later--because as an employee, I've applied for internal positions, and have encountered similar lack of attentiveness by the HR department. In one case, the HR person didn't even reply to an email inquiring about whether the position allowed remote work--an email from an internal address, no less. In another case, following three rounds of interviews, the HR rep said he wanted to "catch up" with me about the process and connect by Teams call. He rescheduled the call not once but twice, and finally told me that I wasn't the final candidate. He probably should have just sent an email. He said he just wanted to tell me "in person" that the team went with another candidate who was just "a little better." I'm left wondering if I want to apply for any more positions with the company. I have a lot of skills not being tapped in my current role, but given the haphazard process, I'm not encouraged.
