Recruiter reached out and set up a call with the team hiring manager - two interviewers were present.
During the interview, they asked me for linux experience - I said no. At the end they asked again if i have any linux experience for which I answered no again. After spending one hour into the interview, both the interviewers then said they're looking for someone who has linux experience (although i didn't mention about linux anywhere on my resume) and that i might or might not be considered for the role.
