The interview process started off great with good communication from HR, but the actual interview itself quickly went downhill. The questions asked weren't relevant to the position, and the interviewer didn't seem interested in discussing the role or the summer project details.
Confirmed questions2 questions
- None of their questions were relevant for the work I was being interviewed for - that was the hardest part about the interview.
