The interview started normally, but then I was invited for a trial day on short notice. During this day, I got to shadow the inspector both at the testing site and elsewhere. After the trial day, I was told I'd get a call by the end of the week. However, no call came. After a week, I decided to reach out myself. On the phone, I was assured I'd get an answer the next day. Sadly, weeks passed without any feedback. Given this lack of professionalism, I eventually withdrew my application. I would have accepted a rejection, but the fact that months went by with no communication suggests something wasn't right.

Behavioral Technical

It was a two-stage interview process, with both online and in-person components. The first interview was with the hiring manager and a colleague. They asked some pretty interesting questions, and it really felt like they were trying to sell me on the role, even though it didn't work out in the end.
