Interview
I recently had an interview process that, unfortunately, left me with a disappointing experience. The initial call with the recruiter was smooth and informative. She was extremely helpful and addressed all of my questions thoroughly, which I appreciated.
However, the technical phone interview was a different experience. The interviewer joined late and started by saying, "I didn't even remember the interview was scheduled for today." Throughout the interview, I felt rushed, as the interviewer frequently interrupted me before I could fully answer the questions. This made it difficult to convey my skills and experience properly.
Overall, the interview process felt unprofessional and left me with a negative impression.
