The process was inconsistent and spanned over a year. I initially had a phone screen a year ago, after which the team went completely silent. Unexpectedly, the same recruiter reached out again recently. I decided to go through the full interview cycle a second time, only to be rejected with a generic, "cookie-cutter" response. Key Observations The Team: The hiring manager came across as humble and easy to talk to. However, the engineer I interviewed with seemed somewhat disengaged during our technical discussion. Environment: It is a typical startup atmosphere, which usually means high energy, but be aware that the salary ranges appear to be on the lower end for the industry. Communication: The follow-through was poor. Getting "ghosted" the first time and then receiving a template rejection after a full loop the second time was disappointing.
