They were clear communicators, scheduled things quickly, and made me feel welcome, which was confidence-boosting. The interviewers asked questions that were on point, really listened to my answers, and even gave me some feedback. They were upfront about what they were looking for and what the next steps would be. All in all, a positive experience.

Got an email from recruiting, they set up a zoom interview for the next week. It seemed to go well, and I was waiting to hear back. They sent one email saying they'd update me the following week, but then no further contact. Just left hanging, which was rude.
