Software Engineer Interview Experience

Process

The interview itself was easy, and the onsite seemed to go well with what sounded like positive feedback. That's where the professionalism ended. After completing the onsite, there was no follow-up, and I was ghosted. It's unbelievable that a company would think this is acceptable after asking a candidate to invest significant time and effort. Ghosting after an onsite interview is disrespectful, lazy, and shows how little they value people. Do not interview here. It was a total waste of time. If this is how they treat candidates, I can't imagine how they treat employees. Never again.

Questions
