Very intensive, 8+ hours in total. It was very focused on process and communication skills as opposed to technical quizzes and live coding.

There was a fun exercise of reviewing a proposal, lots of hypothetical situations, and interest in interplay with other devs. Overall, I was fairly impressed and excited, and I got lots of good feedback up until the point I was just ghosted.

I ended up feeling terrible about the whole thing after that and not really interested in dealing with them any further. Not making the cut is fine and normal, but not even getting a rejection email after such a lengthy process and large effort is pretty raw.

What do you do if a project is going poorly close to launch time?
