Process
I applied online to the position and received an email from a recruiter scheduling a phone interview. I interviewed on the phone with the recruiter and was scheduled for a second round with the hiring manager.
After the second phone screen, I received an email stating I was not being considered for employment.
The interview started with basic questions on projects listed on my resume before moving on to technical questions.
