Got to final round, didn't get an offer! Wish they provided more feedback I felt like once they decided they wouldn't go with me as a candidate, I got ghosted.
Took a goofy assessment test (lots of questions about shapes and pattern recognition) before having a typical screening call with a recruiter.
The call wasn't terrible, but several questions about the modest gap in my resume were a turnoff while my very relevant professional experience was barely broached. Felt like the extended leave was treated as a red flag. Maybe I'm too old school, but I didn't like this process at all.
