the interview was online using zoom. it was pretty easy to get through, not too many rounds were needed for the entire interview process. typically this stage has questions about your previous work, your technical abilities, what you expect to earn, and when you can start.

I applied via the company portal and heard back from HR about a week later to set up a technical round. I had the tech discussion, and it went smoothly, feeling like a project discussion. I managed to answer most of the questions without any trouble.

Presentation Behavioral

I found the job online and the hiring manager reached out within a week. Then, I had a presentation that lasted an hour, followed by interviews with 7 different people, each interview was about 30 minutes long. Everyone I met during the interview process was really friendly. The questions asked were quite straightforward and primarily focused on my resume. Unfortunately, about three weeks later, I received a rejection without any explanation.
