Process
The interviewer was late for the scheduled time. Once they realized there had been an error and that I was interviewing for a level below what they expected, they became incredibly dismissive and unhelpful. They began berating HR and told me that HR would have to deal with me before hanging up the virtual interview.
Questions
Only managed to ask what I was applying for.
