Interview
Job description and recruiter phone screen didn't match at all. Recruiter should know what the job role is about. The employers here are pretty nice though. They were very helpful.
After spending 4 weeks in the interview process and performing pretty well in every interview, got ghosted without any update or feedback.
Last round was supposed to be behavioral but they asked me ML case studies which was very unexpected. Time and energy spent on this firm is useless.
