The initial call was nice, the everything after that was terrible, the "development lead" who did the technical interview didn't know what he was talking about, the DevOps project was a set of unrealistic tasks, they gave me gitlab access but without any permissions, and on top of all of that they wouldn't even reply to my emails!!!
