Behavioral
Interviews went well however hiring manager turned out to be an unprofessional lying snake. She said to contact her directly w/any questions and that they were 100% interested in next steps. This was a flagrant lie because she reversed course for no reason and did not reply directly. Instead she ghosted me and had the recruiting agents do her dirty work for her.
