The interview process seemed standard and pleasant at first. However, looking back, the practices were disappointing. The recruiter disappeared and went out of office for a week without a backup contact, leading to an email bounce back. There was no reply to follow-ups on the status.

It was a really friendly screening call, I applied cold and they reached out. They were really interested in my experience with different systems and wanted to know about my frameworks and if I had any artifacts from agile work.

So first, there was this initial phone interview, which went pretty well. The HR Recruiter was really nice and knew their stuff, giving me a good feel for the company culture and what the job is all about. That was phase 1. Then came an online assessment, testing both personality and skills. After that, I had an in-person interview. The hiring manager was professional and asked some standard questions to see if I was a good fit.
