Vested Account Executive interview questions

I rarely post reviews, but I felt compelled to share my experience due to the significant issues I encountered during the interview process. I completed two separate 45-minute interviews, which I understand can be a necessary part of the hiring procedure. Following these interviews, I was asked to prepare a presentation for review by the Leadership Team—a request I found reasonable. However, I was informed three days later that the role had already been offered to another candidate who had presented earlier ( a week) in the process. This situation raises concerns about the efficiency and transparency of the process. Additionally, I was invited to apply for an alternate role based on the Leadership Team’s initial positive impression, only to later learn that the process would not be pursued further in favor of filling an SAE role. Overall, this experience left me feeling misled, as it seems the company may be maintaining a candidate pool without committing to timely or decisive hiring decisions.
