A recruiter from Handshake contacted me first. We had a chat about the company and my experience. I asked about the role, and the answer was that it's a Frontend role.
In a few weeks after that, a recruiting coordinator contacted me to schedule the interview, which took several more weeks on their side. I asked to provide a job description but never received it.
Then finally, I had a first tech interview, which went with no expectations because all communication was off. I failed the interview, but it was an interesting interview practice. The interviewer was really nice and supportive.
The rejection email came fast. The funny part is that I still don't know any details about the role. Also, the whole process took way too long for just one interview (1.5 months).
