The interview process was lengthy and felt like some questions were repeated. The interviewers were both friendly and energetic. I felt really good after the interview. They promised to follow up regardless of the outcome, but they never did.

I applied online and got an email with a link for a pre-recorded interview. It's been over a month and still no follow-up from HR. It's a bummer not knowing where I stand in the hiring process. Got ghosted by a company I thought was a solid and well-known academic label for kids.
Confirmed questions1 question
- Can you tell me about a situation where you had to collaborate with a difficult colleague to solve an issue? What steps did you take?
