Candidate-reported interview process

It's a video interview, with 4 questions and 1 minute to answer each. You get 2-3 minutes to prep for each question. It's all done in under 15 minutes.

Had a quick call with a representative to go over my resume. Then, there was a part about the client's situation, the info they gave, and how I'd find candidates and explain how we could help. After that, I interviewed with a high-level company person (like a VP or supervisor) about myself and how I'd respond to certain situations.

The interview process felt robotic, with no sense of company culture. It seemed pointless to research the company or talk about yourself, as they weren't interested. My interest in the company dropped significantly right after the interview, and I don't see a future with them.
