Completely dodged a bullet! I was already extremely hesitant about applying to NMSI based on the horrendous reviews here on Glassdoor. You will notice they fired almost every Black women in the company after they spoke up at a staff retreat. This did not sit well with me as a person of color at all or even as a human with a moral compass, but I thought I'd move through the interview process to see if the leaders of the organization had shown any growth (despite friends' warnings against applying). The interview process is a bit ridiculous, and the exact reason people should pay you for interviewing. They first have you interview with a video interview service so you do not interact with a person at the organization. You have 2 minutes to read the question and 3 minutes to answer. There was an error with their service provider and I ended up having to spend 30-minutes on a call with a customer service representative. When I interview at companies I am also interviewing them to see if it's a place I want to work at, so the lack of interaction with an employee at the organization is not helpful at all and is an incredibly cold introduction. Then they asked me to do a project and provide work samples, still before meeting anyone at the organization. So I had to do assignments before I was even sure this is a place I'd like to work at. Then I interviewed with the president. She was interviewing me from her RV and kept cutting out which I found incredibly disrespectful of me and my time. Then I had a panel interview with four vice presidents, including the hiring manager. Considering how poorly the organization seems to handle anything related to DEIJ, it was hilarious they ask interviewees questions about DEIJ and how they would handle microaggressions. I have a feeling the almost all White panel interviewers were taking notes on how they should respond in the future. It's clear their DEIJ work is entirely performative. Further, many reviews noted how the organization has moved away from its mission and only cares about bringing in funding now, and that is the impression I got based on the questions asked about this business development role. Most questions were around experience in sales and no one once asked why I wanted to work there, why I cared about the mission, and why working for an organization that should empower students is important to me. And finally, after all that, NMSI did not even have the courtesy to write me a personalized rejection email. They sent an automated, "do not reply" email with a generic message that they had a lot of interest but went with another candidate. I was honestly embarrassed for them and can totally see why so many people have noted what an awful organization it is to work for. It's a shame because students do need more and better quality STEM education and it does not seem like NMSI is aiding in this cause whatsoever. Funders and future applicants, take note.
