Interview
The workplace environment appears to be micromanaged to some extent, a conclusion drawn from my experience during the interview process.
The process comprised three rounds — a coding challenge and two technical/soft skilss assessments — all of which I successfully navigated.
Unexpectedly, the CTO opted for an additional "final" round. The encounter began with a brief and distant introduction, followed by yet another coding challenge.
Regrettably, I did not meet the requirements this time, and despite my efforts, there was no response from HR. I got ghosted.

Interview
They reach out via LinkedIn, I make a space in calendar to see what the offered position is. Not a single negative comment from the interviewer, I explain my experience, she doesn't explain anything about the company or any position, "there are numerous positions you could be a good fit", treats me like an object. She tells me they'll reach out so I can do a technical test/interview, they never reach out again, they don't respond emails. Lack of respect for their prospective employees and their time.
