Interview
The interview process was normal. The interview ended with the interviewer stating that they'd get back to me by the following week. They never got back to me so I reached out, and never got a reply. A couple of months later got a generated email from their company hiring site. saying they've decided not to move on with my application.

Short and easy, the interview lasted about 20 minutes and was not hard at all, very surface level questions. They are more just trying to get to know you as a person to see if the culture fit is right than anything else.
