I thought I made a good impression throughout the interview and was told I would hear back about moving to the next stage. Sadly, I was ghosted. It felt ironic since this company focuses on user interviews.

Behavioral Presentation

The interview process included an initial HR screening, followed by an interview with the hiring manager. Then, I had to present one of my portfolio projects in a panel session, and the final stage was a meeting with their design leader. The team seemed alright, but communication with the recruiter was a major issue, with many unanswered emails and two-week delays between stages.
