Process

Unfortunately, my experience during the interview was not what I had anticipated. Despite preparing extensively over the last few months, I felt that the interviewers were not fully engaged. Their microphones were muted for significant portions of the session, and they mentioned being busy with other work. This gave me the impression that the interview was not a priority and left me feeling undervalued as a candidate.

I had been looking forward to this opportunity, and it was disappointing that my efforts didn’t receive the attention I believe they deserved. This experience left me feeling disrespected as an interviewee, which I did not expect from a company I greatly admire. I would advise anyone interviewing not to keep your hopes high; it's random here.

For anyone wondering, I also prepped 250+ LeetCode tagged questions along with other questions (500+), and I gave the most optimal solution every time. It's just that they were not even 1% interested in interviewing and just wanted to do their work and get it done somehow.
