Behavioral
My interview experience with this company was pretty bad and I wouldn't recommend it. The recruiter messed up our interview by not showing up, then started sending unprofessional WhatsApp messages and calling at weird times, and we never even settled on one way to communicate. During the actual interview, the recruiter talked in their local language during parts of it. After I heard nothing back for weeks and was basically ghosted, the same recruiter messaged me on LinkedIn to apply again. They also didn't seem to get what the job was even about. This whole disorganized process makes me think the company itself might be disorganized. It was a waste of my time and really frustrating, with no professional courtesy shown at all. Seriously, look somewhere else if you want a professional interview and clear communication.

Had a bunch of interviews with my potential coworkers and folks from other teams like Eng, SRE, HR, and eventually the C-suite. The interviews were scheduled pretty close together but they were chill about it.

Got referred to a position here, Initially got an email from recruiter, interview was setup. After the first interview, got another email that "they really liked my tecnical skill". For second interview was asked to provide three diff days and times for another 30min call. I did promptly send them back. After almost four days got another email from recruiter that their bar was set high and there was slight mismatch in what they were looking for and what tech skill I had.
