The interview process involved a recruiter screen, followed by a hiring manager interview that was mostly behavioral.
It took them two weeks to get back to me after the hiring manager interview, citing various reasons. I was rejected with the feedback: "Sorry, other candidates are already in the late stage of the process and we think their experience aligns more closely with the role." (After a month, the role was still open, so this was clearly not exactly the case).
In my experience, they are as bad at hiring as any average tech company, or perhaps I was just unlucky; I'm not sure.
There was no proper follow-up after the interview, even with multiple pings, and the excuse for rejection was quite weak, offering no learning points from the process.
Classic HR and hiring manager questions, mostly behavioral.
