AskABoss: This is always the way to look at aggravations in an interview process: What do they reveal about the employer and what it might be like to work for them?

I’ve been going through rounds of interviews for a job, but every time we reach the point where an offer should be made, the process is extended by yet another lengthy meeting with the senior staff.

Following the long evening interview, I was brought on for a paid trial work day . After that, they scheduled another evening meeting to discuss revisions to the original job description. That interview began 45 minutes late and ended at 11 p.m. with questions about when I could start and promises to send me the official job offer the following day.

They are a very small organization, so it’s not corporate bureaucracy holding things up … so what is going on? I’m starting to feel like there is no finish line here and I’m just wasting my time. What should I do? I’m sure I should have walked away long ago, but I really can’t keep working in my current industry any longer, and outside of this my years-long job search has been fruitless.

Take those two late evenings and what they say about how the company operates. Are you okay with the prospect of being pulled into meetings that go on well into the night with little notice?

I’d have told them to ram it when they rocked up late.
