Vorstellungsgespräch
The interview started off a little weird. The interviewer felt unprepared and nervous and to be honest, that threw my energy off. He then asked me a ton of questions. I hate when interviews don't feel like a mutually beneficial thing. I didn't really get to know the org, him, the job, or the day-to-day because I was busy answering very social media heavy questions on the first interview. I thought it was a phone screen not the actual job interview? Also, I emailed the coordinator back a week or so ago when setting it up and the email had wrong information in it and she never replied. Red flags all over. Glad I got a rejection honestly.

Frage 1
It was everything to do with what sort of social campaign I'm proud of to how I go about developing a strategy. While I agree these are great questions, I thought it was an initial get to know each other interview, vs. a grilling. Expectations weren't clear.

Vorstellungsgespräch
I had a preliminary call with HR then 2 interviews with Mona and Victoria, followed by a paid project. The interviews went super well, and I felt good about my chances. However, then HR reached out to tell me the role was put on pause temporarily as they were first hirring a Director of Strategic Communications and wanted her to have a say in the hiring. A few weeks later, I saw the role was posted again so I reached out to find out if the role wasn't paused and if we could continue the application process. I was told that my information would be passed along to the new director of strategic communications.
I never heard back again, never got a rejection email, and kept seeing the role posted again every few weeks for the next 8 months or so which felt very sketchy--especially since it looks like they had done the same since at least 8 months prior as well.
It looks like they finally hired someone but it's really disheartening to spend so much time and effort on a project and never get feedback or reasoning as to why they didn't select you. The project was payment of up to $500 but took way more than the 10 hours they said it would. I often wonder if this wasn't just a cheaper way to steal ideas from applicants without actually hiring.
