Candidate-reported interview process

It was a great interview! The interviewers were nice and they explained the problem clearly and answered any questions that I have. The tech interview was a bit difficult in terms of time but nothing too crazy.

So first there was a recruiter call, then a call with the hiring manager right after that, and then a technical interview with two engineers, a senior and another one. The last part was an onsite with what I think were System Design, Technical Questions, and a Project Deep Dive. Overall, they were pretty clear about everything.

The recruiter call went well. However, the hiring manager call was really bad. It's usually one of my favorite parts of interviewing, but this hiring manager was very condescending and rude. I was happy to get rejected because of this experience. I'd tell people to avoid this company unless they like a toxic work environment.
