Technical Behavioral

Had to take a typing test first. After passing that, I interviewed with two supervisors over MS Teams. It went really well, they were easy to talk to. We even discussed scheduling, and they said I'd hear back in 7-10 days. But then they completely ghosted me, and I never heard anything back even after trying to reach out.

Confirmed questions1 question
  • Can you share an instance where you experienced a conflict in a previous work setting?
