Four interviews, a CEO meeting, and a decisive requirement that was never communicated

1,7
Bewerber/inHat sich 2026 in St. Gallen als Technical Account Manager beworben und wurde für eine spätere Berücksichtigung vorgemerkt.

Verbesserungsvorschläge

Respect candidates’ time and communicate decisive hiring criteria from the very beginning.

In my case, I went through four interviews over more than a month, including HR, Hiring Manager, Technical Team, and CEO discussions. Only at the very end was I informed that native or near-native German proficiency had become the deciding factor.

Candidates invest a significant amount of time, preparation, and emotional energy in a hiring process. Transparency is not only a sign of professionalism, but also of respect.

Having clear expectations and aligned internal requirements from the beginning would save considerable time and effort for everyone involved. Time and energy are valuable resources, and candidates deserve the same level of commitment and clarity that employers expect from them.

Interview process lacked professionalism and transparency

1,6
Bewerber/inHat sich 2025 in St. Gallen als VP Growth beworben.

Verbesserungsvorschläge

I was approached directly by the company’s Chief of Staff regarding a VP Growth role overseeing both marketing and sales. After an initial conversation, I had a follow-up interview with the CEO.

The discussion with the CEO focused almost entirely on detailed marketing execution topics. A significant portion of the conversation involved questions about how I would run specific marketing functions and improve efficiency, following comments that the current marketing performance was not meeting expectations.

At the end of the conversation, I was told I would receive feedback within one to two weeks. After that, communication stopped entirely. Despite a polite follow-up from my side, neither the CEO nor the Chief of Staff responded.

For a senior leadership hiring process, this lack of closure and communication felt unprofessional and left a negative impression of internal alignment and candidate experience.

Suggestion for improvement:
Clear communication and timely feedback would significantly improve the hiring experience and reflect more positively on the company’s leadership culture.
