Process
I was asked multiple questions about improving the complexity of one question. The interviewer only gave me positive feedback, and I asked him if the answer I gave made sense to him, to which he replied, "Yes." Still, I received a rejection email stating, "I'm not a good fit." I discussed it with some friends, and it made sense to them as well, but I don't know what else the interviewer was looking for in a candidate.
