Process
The interview panel was very good and friendly. The questions were pretty decent and on point. However, that is where the nice part ends.
I felt I did pretty well on the onsite interview and deserve to be notified of the rejection, at the least. I waited for two weeks after the virtual onsite concluded, and it appeared the team was still not communicating the results to me. The recruiter repeatedly told me he would share the results the next day, but he did not. This was very unprofessional.
To this day, I have not received the results despite following up with them three times. I would not recommend placing any hope in interviews with such companies.
