Reached out to schedule an interview over a month after I applied. Had a great chat with the HR gal. I moved on to the hiring manager interview which I thought went well. The communication was pretty good throughout the process. They let me know a week after the hiring manager interview that they would make their decision by mid week (email was sent on Monday). The only negative was I received a generic application rejection email. I think once you are several interviews into the process you should at least receive a personal email.
Thank you for sharing your feedback regarding our interview process. We are pleased to hear that you had a positive experience connecting with our recruiting team and the hiring manager, and that you found our communication consistent throughout the early stages.
However, we sincerely appreciate your candid note regarding the final notification. We agree that candidates who have invested significant time in the interview process deserve a more personal touch than a generic email.

We value the time you spent with us and wish you the best of luck in your career search.
