      UX Designer II Interview

      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied online. I interviewed at Elsevier

      Interview

      Pretty sure this company creates job postings for jobs that they don't intend to fill. Phone screen went great and a behavioral interview was scheduled just a couple days later. First red flag was that one of the interviewers just didn't show up and the one who did wasn't prepared. Very softball questions, which maybe should have been the second red flag. I received an auto rejection in less than 24 hours which tells me that they didn't even bother to discuss my candidacy and interview with the team before rejecting me. The rejection email was short and contained a lot of grammatical errors, which again reaffirms that this wasn't something they took seriously. Recruiter did not respond to my request for feedback, which I anticipated based on everything else.
