Interview
After a lengthy two-month process involving four interview rounds, I ultimately was not selected for the role. While the interviews were engaging and seemed to go well, I received no clear feedback on the decision. It was disappointing to invest so much time and effort without gaining insights to help improve for future opportunities.
