It all started well, I talked to the hiring manager and they invited me to the next interviews. But then things went south. The company wanted to move fast and scheduled the next interviews for the very next day. The next day, I was told the interviewers were on PTO and had to reschedule. The interview round was rescheduled for the day after, and then again. It had to be rescheduled due to the interviewers being unavailable. Now, on the third attempt, only the interviewer for the first round showed up. The second of the two had to be rescheduled again. The interview I did have, the interviewer either didn't speak at all or spoke way too much, not letting me type a single line of code before jumping in with suggestions. I decided I had enough and would not continue.

The interview process was extremely partial and the candidate selection was very poor. The overall experience was terrible, and even after reaching out for an update, I was met with the standard 'we will update you.'

Technical Coding

The interview was pretty straightforward, and with a basic understanding, you could definitely crack it. They asked questions straight from the resume, covering the projects you've listed and the technologies you used to build them. Plus, there were a bunch of SQL queries, with a big emphasis on SQL.
