Genuinely the worst process I've ever come across. I was asked to complete a case study after the initial screening call, which was already a red flag. The brief was loose, no deadline was set, and it wasn't clear what the next steps would be. Anyway, I completed and submitted it... then nothing. Over a month went by. My emails went unanswered. Eventually, I heard back saying they had changed the scope of the role and they wouldn't be moving forward. There was no acknowledgement of the work I had put in. Zeal had asked for a three-page strategy document, so I had basically done a day's work for free. I should invoice for it, really. I had been warned that, culturally and structurally, Zeal is a mess. This is clearly true. To any self-respecting candidate: avoid.

The recruiter reached me on LinkedIn. 1st interview was pretty short and basic and then there was a second interview with the CMO. The duration was one hour, some questions about my experience etc, nothing special. at the end of the interview CMO said that he could see me in their growth department and in 2-3 days the recruiter would send me feedback. I waited for feedback for a few weeks, made follow-ups, and one day told Rapley that they were sorry for ghosting and would get back to me with feedback in the nearest days. It was a month ago. The funny part is that I was invited to the same position but with a different recruiter, I figurate that it was the same company half an hour before our interview today. So, she never joined the interview! I wait for 10 min, texted to her on LinkedIn, but nothing. I don't thinks that it can be a good place to work if they so not organized in the very beginning of the processes.
