Process
The whole process took almost 2 months.
I went through 6 interviews, including with people not part of the area I was applying to, and had to go over similar questions multiple times.
HR communication was weak; I had to check with them to understand the next steps, and I did not always get a response.
I received a rejection email saying they cannot share any feedback at the moment, so it is unclear why I did not pass after all this time invested.
