Just ranting here...

Recruiter reached out for a role and after the initial call, recruiter was happy and said my background fits perfectly and HM also reviewed the resume and would like to move forward. Then said he will get back to me to schedule the next stage after I gave him my availability. Almost two weeks not a single word from him despite I followed up with him via email. Today as I have other in hand trying to call him to see if I could get it scheduled and expedite the process. He picked up the god damn phone and just said oh we suddenly decided not to move forward with you and we can't provide feedback. WTF Rivian. Avoid this shit hole at all cost

  • OP, having this happened to an Amazonian makes whatever happened to me with Rivian less insulting. Never going to buy a Rivian.

    Most likely the HM’s fault. On the other hand, I had a pretty good experience and was extended an offer but declined.

  • I too had a similar experience. Inexperienced and useless recruiters

    Similar experience interviewing at Rivian. Got through phone screen, HM call, and did the 25 minute presentation and 4 hours of panel interviews. I had more relevant experience than the lead engineer that interviewed me.

    A week after the panel interviews, I was told by the recruiter that although my experience was aligned and that they really liked me, the HM decided to move forward with another candidate. Recruiter said they wanted to keep me in mind for future roles.

    A month later, they posted several of the exact roles, I applied and got a rejection email within 24 hours stating that my experience did not align with the position.
