First round was supposed to be a call with the hiring manager, but was informed that they were unable to attend due to another critical meeting so I spoke to their manager instead. The call ended up going very well and I really enjoyed the thought provoking discussion.
Second round for me was the virtual on-site, which was split into separate days. The questions asked were interesting and I really enjoyed the process. The following day after the first virtual on-site round, I was informed that the hiring manager was cancelling all interviews without any clarification as to why. I inquired about it, but was met with an obscure response.

Horrible. Rude. They were awful. Stay away. I never would recommend to even my worst enemy on this planet. What a terrible interviewer. Beware. They already picked someone. I am glad I dodged a bullet here.
