The interview process involved three technical stages:

• HackerRank questions (2)
• Frontend discussion and live coding
• Live coding algorithmic challenge

This was followed by a final "cultural fit" stage. However, this stage was not truly a cultural fit assessment. After passing the three technical stages, I was rejected with a generic email. I had to follow up to request feedback. The reason provided was that I was assumed to be not technically competent enough during the "cultural fit" stage. The interviewer held a PhD, while I am self-taught, which seems to have led to this assumption. This process appears unfair, as passing three technical stages only to be rejected based on an assumption made during a "culture fit" interview is problematic. Receiving a generic email with no explanation further exacerbates this. It reflects poorly on the company.
