Candidate-reported interview process

I had a phone interview and then they invited me to visit their campus. Everyone was super nice and kind during and before my visit. However, after the interview, they ghosted me until they declined my application with a rude comment about my technical preparation.

The interview process was pretty standard, with three rounds of interviews. I felt like it was a bit much for an entry-level job that only needed two years of experience.

Since I did my undergrad there the school knew me and offered me this position with my acceptance into their graduate program. So if you are looking to do grad work and you are already there I would highly recommend talking with the department so you have a higher chance of being selected.
