Interview
The Easiest tech screen in the world followed by the most bored/disinterested recruiter in the world. Tech part was ok, but arguably too easy for a Sr position. The Life Story round was clearly a snooze fest for the recruiter, who was practically yawning and dozing off.
It gave an extremely rude vibe.

Question 1
Tech screen: fizzbuzz. Life Story round: talk to me for 40 minutes and make sure I’m interested.

Coding exercise interview
In my opinion, the interview was well conducted.
What got me confused was when the interviewer described the next steps of the hiring process. That made me believe that I was actually going to the next step. A day letter got a rejection letter from the recruiter.
