        I see no reason to censor the company. Tell the world who these a-holes are. A simple 30 min phone screen would have been sufficient. If they couldn’t discern what they needed from that, they shouldn’t be blaming the candidate.

        If this company is venture-backed, I think the investors would want to know this is how a portfolio company is treating prospective employees.

        if that company is stupid enough to send that letter.. the costs incurred will be much greater than they realize. whoever interviewed could walkaway with a nice sum while whoever wrote that, fired.

        If this practice of companies charging for interviews that didn't lead anywhere accompanies with potential applicants being able to charge companies for the "time wasted" if their interviews didn't go well, then this would be quite fair, tbh.

        Absolutely a scam. I would contact the company and let them know it is happening. If you have the envelope it should have an outbound zip code on it that would help. If you contact their HR and it is real, just post it here unredacted, they will be blacklisted.

        No way that can be real, right? Where did you come across it? If so, sad sign of their business strategy.
