Process
I had three rounds of interviews on June 19th:
- A first technical round
- A second manager round
- A final HR round
All interviewers asked questions related to my resume and projects, as well as easy questions. However, today marks one month since I provided feedback, and I haven't received any updates. Is this a rejection? How many months does it typically take to receive a rejection or selection email?
Questions
Related to Python, as my resume is based on Python.
