A pretty typical Bay Area interview process: a recruiter phone screen, a technical phone screen, and on-site sessions.
The interviews themselves weren't particularly out of the ordinary, including a coding question, a system design question, a behavioral session, and lunch.
The company seemed to be growing very quickly.
The bad part came after the interviews. The HR rep called a week later, extending an offer and wanting to schedule a call with the hiring manager to iron out the details. The next day, the hiring manager called and said they were not extending an offer, with no explanation or apology.
If they can't keep a simple yes/no straight when filling a position, it makes me wonder what other important details get lost.
