Behavioral Technical
Applied online, had an initial HR chat which went well. Next was a technical interview that was alright. They said they'd let me know about the next step, a tech challenge, within a week. It took two weeks for the HRO to get back to me saying I didn't get it. No real feedback, just that they'd already hired someone and stopped interviewing. The process felt slow with a lot of waiting. The people were nice but maybe not the most upfront.
