From what I can tell of the story, he was never left alone with 1 person at any time. He was ushered from room to room, meeting groups of people the whole time.
Personally, I think the culture sounds great. But if he didn't, there's no point in wasting his whole day there. He was polite in telling them that he didn't think he'd fit and there was no need to waste anyone's time.
Had this been a 2-hour interview, instead of a whole day, I'd say stick it out and be friendly. But not a whole day.
- snowwrestler 14y agoThere's usually a lead for an interviewing process like this, and I don't think it would be that hard to say something like "hey can I have a word for a minute" as you're transitioning between groups.
- billswift 14y agoEven if there is, that doesn't mean he'll know who the lead is. I have been in interview where I have gone from person to person with no one in two consecutive sections. As far as I could tell there was no one person to discuss sensitive issues with.
- snowwrestler 14y agoWow, interesting, thanks. What did you think of that process--did you end up hiring on there?
- pbreit 14y agoNever left alone with 1 person? I find that hard to believe. And who's doing the ushering? How hard would it be to ask to speak with the hiring lead or really anyone?
