Neutral ExperienceNo Offer

Process

Overall a lukewarm process. A little bit jilted by multiple cancellations by interviewers. Was given very generic feedback after. I think this is a numbers game for them, so don't get your hopes up.

Questions

Some obscure computer science questions; a lot of domain knowledge questions.
