Candidate-reported interview process

I passed an online test first, then there was a coding part. For the online interview, they asked me about two prior experiences related to data analysis. A busy business guy rushing to finish interview for supper.

It was 3 rounds with the hiring manager, director, and HR. First, they did a code test and then reviewed my resume. After that, there were no more coding tests, but they asked questions directly related to the job description. Finally, there was an HR interview.

I applied online and shortly after, HR contacted me to set up interviews with the team and hiring manager. The second stage involved a case study, and the third stage was an interview with the Lead. Unfortunately, after the final interview, HR ghosted me. I followed up for updates, but received no response. I wouldn't recommend this company.
