Process
The recruiter arranged two phone interviews two weeks after I applied for a position online.
The first phone interview went okay with the hiring manager, and the second was with other technical people. They all asked straightforward technical questions.
However, I received no feedback from either the recruiter or the interviewers. I wrote an email to the recruiter, but I received no response at all.
