Process
I applied online.
The recruiter reached out and asked which language I prefer for the online assessment. They said they are looking to hire this intern very quickly. I took the assessment and spent two to three hours doing it. The recruiter reached out after two weeks and said they were sure about going forward with the role, and that they would move fast. It has been a week, and they haven't gotten back yet. I just wasted three hours of my life doing the assessment and was ghosted without a decision.
