Process
Applied online and went through multiple rounds over the span of 2.5 months. Received a verbal offer, but HR's definitions of qualifications were not aligned with the hiring team's. It's a very unorganized company with zero transparency with candidates. I encourage the company to ensure that all candidates are qualified to be hired before wasting multiple months of their time.
