Candidate-reported interview process
The interview process involved three rounds with team members, focusing entirely on behavioral questions and a simple riddle. No technical questions were asked, and I did not speak with the director.
The conversation was very informative and took place in a pleasant atmosphere. I had the opportunity to ask many questions. Everything was answered to my satisfaction, and I was even invited to a second interview right away.
HR found me on Indeed and set up an initial call. After that, the hiring manager interviewed me. Things seemed good for a couple of weeks, but then I heard nothing back from HR. I tried reaching out a few times, but they never responded.
