I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Via Transportation in May 2024
Interview
Had a recruiter screen. The recruiter was 5 minutes late to our 30-minute meeting, seemed extremely disinterested, and replied with the exact same sentence ("thank you for elaborating on my question") after my answers. The most robotic and impersonal recruiter I've interacted with. Received a generic rejection a few days later.
