Behavioral

I had an initial chat about my career path, and about 5 minutes in, they mentioned I was referred by someone internal. I told them I didn't know the person. The interview continued, and it was clear I didn't have enough experience for the role, which was true. A few days later, I got another invite for a similar position. I accepted, and within minutes, we had the same conversation about the referral from the same person. This shows they don't really look at your CV or check candidate info.

My process was Recruiter, Technical, RH. After that silence. I received good feedback, but they stopped sending emails, no final decision (the silence is a final decision, :D). But the whole process was warm, very nice people, I wish I could be part of the company.
