Question 1
Explain how I contributed to the team in my last role.
I applied online. I interviewed at Sallie Mae (Newark, DE) in Feb 2026
Interview
The interview process started smoothly with an initial HR screening where the questions were straightforward. I was told I would hear back quickly regarding next steps. However, after the interview, there was no follow-up communication. Even though I have reached out to the hr, I heard nothing back. The lack of timely updates in the process was disappointing and made it difficult to plan accordingly.
