Process
I was contacted on LinkedIn. Then, I was given the opportunity to talk with someone about my interests. After that, I had a phone technical interview, followed by a take-home project. I was a bit disappointed that I wasted a few days working on the project and then received no feedback on it. I wanted to take the interview seriously, but I am unfortunately very busy. To return a project they probably would have wanted, I think I would have had to dedicate way more time than I had. I admittedly had other obligations and had to stop short.
