Neutral ExperienceNo Offer

Process

Applied at college fair and recruiter came back within two weeks, asking me to complete a simple coding challenge on HackerRank within a few days. A different recruiter then came back to schedule a screening interview conducted over Skype, and the interview went through my background and motivations. Received the final outcome a few days after the screening interview.
