5 rounds of interviews to actually meet a working employee, and the in person interview was very superficial on questions and the employer was not very responsive. Had to follow up multiple times to get a rejection letter, does not respect job applicants time.
The interview process started with an online application, followed by an initial screening. The interviewer asked questions about my background, technical skills, projects, and problem-solving approach. There was also time to ask questions about the role and team. Overall, the process was organized and professional, and communication was clear throughout.
