Submitted resume, heard back the next day to schedule an interview.

Initial interview with HR went well. I was told I would be sent a Zoom link to meet the hiring manager, which was promptly sent after the phone call.

Second interview with the hiring manager was okay. He kept looking at his phone the whole time and seemed disinterested, not really interested in listening to the answers to the questions. He told me I would hear from recruiting with next steps.

Got a generic email a couple of days later stating they have candidates with a better fit for the position.

It was pretty much a waste of time. They didn't even send me any technical questions or a HackerRank.

I have more management experience than the manager who was interviewing me.

When I interview someone, I show interest in learning about the candidate more than looking at my phone.

Suggestion: They should probably have an HR staff member sit in on all interviews.

Pros: Recruiter was quick to follow up, so they seem to have good HR staff.

Compensation seemed to be pretty good, though I didn't get all the specifics.

Company is in a hot field with a lot of growth and seemed like a cool atmosphere with a lot of in-office perks.

Made me sign an NDA, but mostly generic questions about my resume, projects, management experience, tech stack, etc.
