Interview
I have interviewed for the role through GHC 2024. Initially, there was a phone screen followed by an interview and a 45-minute panel interview that was a mix of behavioral and technical questions based on my previous work experience.
The process was disappointing, with no proper communication from the recruiters and no respect for the candidate's time.
