A former co-worker invited me to visit them for dinner. (They have excellent free food, by the way.) I listened to their pitch and became really interested in interviewing for them.
They move super fast. Within a day, I received an email from a recruiter scheduling an hour-long phone interview for the following day.
On the phone, the interviewer seemed stressed but mentioned they were busy all day and apologized for calling me late. I was mostly asked to talk about my previous job experience and received the typical "describe a challenging problem from your current job and how you solved it" question. I thought I did well for most of the interview; in fact, we were laughing and joking around for parts of it.
During the last 10 minutes of the interview, I was asked to write some code in a shared browser session, and again, I felt I did well there too.
Surprisingly, though, I was told five days later by a recruiter that I was not the "right fit." I asked for some feedback, as this caught me off guard, but the recruiter only replied, "Sorry, we do not offer individual feedback for candidates."
