Interview
Long interview process, but mostly behavioral questions. Some technical questions on past projects and experience. One individual asked me to define the tools and packages I have listed on my resume.
Overall a very positive experience. All my interviewers were extremely thoughtful, well-spoken, and pleasant. I greatly enjoyed the conversations we had and I really wanted the position.
The trouble came when I received the offer. They offered me substantially less money than my current salary, even though I had made clear what my current salary was, and that I was looking for a raise. I am not sure who in the tech industry would willingly take a 20% pay cut when hopping jobs, but, for some reason, they expected me to be that person. Extremely disappointing and a little insulting, they seemed to insinuate that I didn't have the skills to be paid my current salary.
Again, overall positive experience, just absolutely shocked at their low offer.

Question 1
Why do you think you’re the best candidate for this job?
I advanced through three interview stages, including an on-site with expenses covered, but was ultimately rejected with vague feedback. The position was reopened during my interviews and has remained open since.
2 video interviews and one full day interview.
Had to email the manager to REMIND him of my interview.
3 people didn't show up the full day interview leaving me hours alone to do nothing in between interviews.
Asked me several questions not related to the position.
