Pros: The interview preparation process was ultimately helpful and contributed to securing a job offer with another company. Cons: Interview process was unacceptably long with large gaps and poor communication between stages. Role was not clearly defined; seemed like they were trying to fit candidates into a position later. Final discussion required "specific skills", making the earlier process feel misaligned. Questions were basic and did not effectively assess real skills or experience, yet evaluations were based on these limited interactions. Overall experience felt disorganized and a waste of time due to lack of structure and clarity. Unnecessary focus on long-term commitment rather than evaluating current skills and fit. Lack of confidence in the candidate from the outset, which negatively impacted the overall interview experience.

It was a short initial phone screen with a jovial recruiter. They said they were not a technical person and would not ask technical questions. Described the business and size of the company.
