Candidate-reported interview process

Went through three interviews, first with HR, then with two project team members, and finally with the hiring manager. The questions were relevant for a project manager and I had to do an assessment before the last interview.

went through 3 interview rounds, seemed to be going well, but then radio silence; i sent a follow-up, got an automated out-of-office reply and no response to that email, then the next email was an automated rejection, and no feedback even though i asked for it, totally ghosted by their HR.

The first round was a behavioral interview on HireVue. It had two video questions and three writing questions. It wasn't too hard. The video part was one take each, but there was plenty of time and it was easy. It was a standard pre-screen.
