New Balance interview questions

In one word: Ghosted. After a first phone interview which I was promised to get feedback in less than a week, it’s been several months and I haven’t heard from them again. It’s frustrating when companies do this, but I didn’t expect such a reputable company to do something like that – it’s a huge red flag, and it even changed my vision towards one of the brands I used to admire the most…

Disappointed — twice now — with New Balance’s recruitment process. After completing interviews, both times there was zero follow-up. No call, no courtesy email, nothing. For a global brand, this level of candidate communication is well below expectation. Recruitment isn’t just about filling roles — it’s about representing the company’s values and treating people with basic respect. When candidates invest time preparing, attending interviews, and engaging with your process, the least they deserve is a simple “yes” or “no.” It’s frustrating to see such a well-established company allow poor candidate care to undermine its reputation. One bad recruitment experience can turn people off a brand completely — and in my case, two have done exactly that.
