Process
There was a hiring manager call and then a coding round.
There was no recruiter call, which left me unprepared for the HM chat, as I didn't realize I was being set up with the HM right away.
I completed the coding round and passed all test cases, but still received a denial.
The interviewer seemed to be doing other work during the interview and wasn't paying attention. She did not speak once during the coding session, nor offer any helpful guidance when I was stuck on a bug.
Overall, I would not recommend this experience to others.
