The process was slow and unresponsive, with ghosting after all the effort. It took a lot of time, and they didn't even have the courtesy to get back. Very unprofessional, even though they have great work opportunities and are technically skilled in the latest AV tech.

Coding Technical
I went through an offline evaluation on remoteinterview.io, followed by a phone interview via coderpad and zoom. Unfortunately, I didn't advance past that stage. My nerves got the best of me during the coderpad part, even though the tasks themselves weren't that hard if I had just relaxed.
