Process

The process itself was straightforward. The onsite interview consisted of system design, algorithm & design, coding, and tech feedback rounds.

What was horrible was my experience with the recruiter. She had no respect for my time throughout the process.

She set up an initial call to talk about the interview process and never called. After the onsite interview, she randomly reached out to me to talk about next steps. I wasn't available, so I asked her to reschedule, and she never responded for a few days. Then, she scheduled two meetings for the same reason. She would then cancel/reschedule the meeting after the start time. She showed complete disrespect for my availability.

During the interview, the interviewers kept reiterating the fact that I should feel free to reach out to them if needed. When I did reach out to one of them to raise my concerns, I didn't hear back.

It seems like the company lacks any respect for your time. I declined their offer just because of this. I am glad I found this out now rather than later.
