Behavioral Technical Presentation

The interview process was lengthy and had very little communication between rounds. There were 4 interviews in total: one via Skype, one via phone, and two in person. I was told an in-person interview would be required, so I flew cross-country to their office and spent two days traveling for it. After the interviews, I was told a decision would be made in a few days, but I ended up waiting over 2 weeks to hear back. I eventually received a generic letter saying my experience wasn't what they were looking for. It seems they are incapable of reviewing resumes properly before wasting candidates' time.

Behavioral Presentation

The interview process was easy, and the people were nice. We looked around the office, which has a beautiful interior. It was a good experience overall. I got the answer about a month later.
