I applied through an employee referral. The process took 8 weeks. I interviewed at BASF (Houston, TX) in Jan 2024
Interview
I had one screen call and it took about 1 month for that to happen after application submission. After the call, I was completely ghosted. I was a referral, but it didn't matter. I was overqualified for the position, and I knew that, but a follow up communication would be nice.
