I applied online. I interviewed at ERGO Group (Germany) (Boston, MA) in Mar 2026
Interview
Disappointing candidate experience. I was asked to complete a list of questions in advance for a scheduled phone interview, spent time preparing and sending my responses, and then the interview was canceled a few hours beforehand with no explanation or apology. I understand schedules can change, but the lack of communication felt unprofessional and disrespectful of the candidate’s time.
