I am not quite sure how to respond.
After 3 rounds of internal interviews for a position elsewhere in my company, the final interview was one of the worst I’ve ever had. The other interviews went really well, but this interview with HR was unlike anything I’ve ever experienced. The HR rep talked over me, interrupted me, mentioned how many other candidates she had to interview and how long it was going to take her to do that.
An example of this was when she was asking me a question, I’d get 4 words out of my mouth before she would yell THAT DOES NOT ANSWER MY QUESTION. She also made the interview more about her than me, telling me about all the Fortune 500 companies she’d worked for and how many years of experience she had doing interviews.
I was pissed and felt like I didn’t get a fair shot. I decided to provide some honest feedback to the hiring managers. I kept it short and sweet saying the environment felt “hostile” and I was “constantly being spoken over” during the interview.
I found out this feedback was sent to the interviewer directly DURING the interview process WITH me CC’d.
The interviewer replied to me saying “it was her job blah blah” but thanks for the feedback.
Either way, I feel like there is now a negative bias on my side and I feel the need to respond.
Any advice would help.
