Senior Site Reliability Engineer Interview Experience - United States

Negative ExperienceNo Offer
Process
Good process, honestly.
Had a take-home exercise (with timing) which was reasonable and a practical question.
After passing that round, the recruiter asked for my availability for the next steps, and I never heard back after responding. They didn't seem very organized.
