Neutral ExperienceNo Offer
Process
I had an initial Hireflix one-way interview. I did not like it too much.
I think it was automated, and they asked six basic behavioral questions.
After that, you do not hear back for a while. Then, they provide a technical assessment with two LeetCode medium problems.
