Interview
Interview process itself was kind of alright but suddenly mysterious reason for unexpected one week delay to hear back the result after the final interview. Not only that, even that info was not provided automatically, had to ask to get an update after waiting few days with no updates. Didn’t get an offer in the end after waiting one more week. A bummer after being hyped up for the position.
