Interview
Extremely Unprofessional.
Recruiter set up a call. No show. I replied back to her that I was waiting for her call. She didn't care to apologize and set up another time.
2nd time: again no call. I emailed her again.
3rd time: I waited for 20 mins from the scheduled time. I came back to work as it was during day. She calls me. I couldn't pickup. I go out, call her and leave a voicemail. She calls me after this drama happens another time.
The recruiter didn't care to ask anything and complained that she can hear noise in the background. Well of course, as I just walked out of the building to take the call.
Please learn to values other people's time and apologize for your mistake.

I applied through college or university. The process took 6 weeks. I interviewed at Castlight (San Francisco, CA) in Mar 2020
Interview
I had a talk with one of the recruiters at the UC Berkeley Career Fair and received an email and a call a few weeks later to set up a phone screen and in-person interview. I went to SF for an on-site and was placed in a room for 4 interviews but only one of the interviews was in person and the rest were through a video. I was wondering why I was even asked to come in person given that most of the interviews were virtual. One of the interviewers over the video call was very difficult to understand and I was unable to comprehend his question because of the poor audio quality. The office, however, is really cool and in a great location in SF.
