Interview
I attended an onsite interview where it consist of two rounds, both the senior team and the hiring manager. The senior team members were friendly and welcoming, but the hiring manager was somewhat rude. He repeatedly interrupted the interview by turning off his camera and microphone while interviewing and to take other calls. Following the interview, HR reached out several times, but instead of a formal offer, I was only given a vague response about the possibility of an offer.
