Interview
I was invited to an interview on MS Teams approximately one week after I had applied for the role. My interview took place a week later with the recruiter. Their demeanour was attentive which created a relaxed environment. I thought the interview went well but unfortunately, I wasn't quite suitable for the role. I received a generic rejection email without any actionable feedback. I asked for feedback but didn't receive any more correspondence afterwards. The process took about three weeks.

Interview
One interview with the recruiter, and then a rejection email the day after with no explanation / reasoning behind the decision. The recruiter even couldn't answer my questions regarding the team they're hiring for, literally saying "I don't really know what this team is working on". They need to educate themselves first before starting the recruitment process and reject people.
