I am writing this response personally, as the CEO and founder of The Language Grid.
While I respect that not every interview results in a match, I take serious issue with the tone and content of your comments. Suggesting that I, or this company, would select candidates based on appearance or age is not only false it is offensive, and highly inappropriate.
We have a diverse, mixed-gender team of serious professionals, many of whom have decades of experience in business, education, and leadership roles. Our average team member is 48 years old. We do not, and have never, hired based on age or looks. The implication that we would is unacceptable and goes against everything this company stands for.
We have a clear diversity and inclusion policy, and we take pride in building a culture based on respect, merit, and performance. Your comments show a profound lack of professionalism and are completely out of line with the values we uphold.
It is abundantly clear this was not a cultural fit. I will not be commenting further.
