I applied online. I interviewed at Kärcher (Aurora, CO) in Nov 2025
Interview
Interesting and disappointing attempt at gaslighting by HR to close out the process. Initial quick process and responses, scheduling interviews same week. Then ghosting. 2 months later, after following up emails to HR - response stating pursuing another candidate (which in english means candidate selected...); same day she reposted the req. When someone tells me who they truly are, I choose to believe them the 1st time. Interaction with executive felt like cultural fit, direct communication, etc. Timeline - we're looking to fill the role by Jan 1, etc.
Thank you for your candid feedback. I want to sincerely apologize for the lack of communication. Between the holiday season and our internal scheduling, we clearly lost momentum, and I recognize how frustrating that silence is when you’ve invested time in our process.
To be direct and transparent regarding the job posting: we currently have multiple openings for this role. While we have decided not to move forward with your candidacy for these seats at this time, the reposting reflects our ongoing search to fill the remaining vacancies.
I appreciate the directness of our interview and truly value the time you took to meet with us and to provide feedback.
Best,
Fabiana Valbuena
Talent Acquisition Manager

Interview
Sehr angenehm geführtes Gespräch. Es dauerte ca eine Stunde und eine Woche später bekam man schon Rückmeldung. Die Fragen des Gespräches waren zudem fair. Der Prozess hat dabei sehr transparent stattgefunden und zu jeder Zeit war klar, wo man steht.
