What happened in the interview where you owed money? I've never heard of anything like that
- axaxs 8y agoI was given the hotel to stay at, and directions that I didn't need a rental car just to use a taxi or uber/lyft. In my city I've had bad experiences with Uber, so asked the hotel to arrange a taxi for my interview needs. It was a small SUV. The driver was nice, knew the company I was interviewing at, said he does these interviews all day, knew exactly where to go, was waved in by security and knew exactly where to drop me off. Three rides, plus tip, was a bit expensive, but I figured hey it's the bay area. It was a good distance from the airport. Although my receipt was basic, it listed a taxi company. The company I interviewed for told me it's not a real taxi company but a private driver service and they will not pay it. Actually, typing this again made me a bit mad. It was Facebook, who spent the majority of my free day there showing me all the lavish offerings. I actually really liked the people there I met, well most of them. I was very upset by the message they had sent me. I am but a clueless guy from the midwest. They picked the hotel and said get a taxi. I asked the hotel if they'd help with a taxi, and they took care of it. How am I to know it's not a real taxi company?
- solarkraft 8y agoI thought taxi companies were "private driver service"s? Thanks for naming the company.
- axaxs 8y agoI may remove it, I'm not quite sure what is and isn't proper to share about an interview process. I will also say, I really did enjoy the interview, and met some of the smartest people I'd ever met in my time there. I def wouldn't let an internet stranger's experience with one part of the interview turn you away. Just my experience.
