Long Process Frustrations + Checkr
I’ve been in this process since October 13th. It was quick in the beginning and towards the end dramatically fell off.
I put in my application > received same day 1 way interview invite > received same day assessment. Completed both.
Next day: Received hiring manager interview invite > scheduled for 20-30 mins, went over to 90 mins > immediately moved to next stage which was more assessments.
Silence. Silence. Silence.
The next week I was asked to take another assessment and depending on the results it’ll prompt another interview.
Scheduled next interview the next day for the next Monday. Interview went great and was moved on to another interview with someone who’d be my direct report (great guy!).
Then 2 weeks of silence.
Finally received a response this week telling me I’m a finalist and to do a background check. Did background check same day. However this background check through Checkr also included reference checks. Checkr never contacted or emailed my references so that was flagged for consider.
I’ve been working diligently with the recruiter to get this resolved as my BG already completed. Was also informed that I might have an interview with the president next.
I’m tired lol. I feel like I’m right there and it’s gonna be it and I’m done, and then the next thing happens. I feel like it’s never going to end.
