Software Engineer (Internship) Interview Experience

Process

I was contacted directly by a recruiter to interview on campus.

The interview was fairly standard: it involved a LeetCode easy-medium problem and a few questions about my interests.

About a week later, the recruiter contacted me to move onto the next round, stating I had passed the first interview.

Unfortunately, after following up multiple times over a month-long period, I did not receive any reply regarding next steps and was essentially ghosted by the recruiter.
