After going for 4 rounds, I was ghosted. During the interview process, the recruiter said that "they don't know who they are looking for. Open to every level; could be a junior or senior". That alone was enough for me not to take them seriously.

I recently went through the interview process at a company where it started with a recruiter call to discuss my background and interest in the role, followed by an online assessment with a few data structures and problem-solving questions. After that, I had a live technical interview where I walked through my approach to a coding problem and explained my decisions clearly. I also had a deeper discussion about one of my past projects, focusing on the system design, challenges, and impact of my work. The process wrapped up with a behavioral round with the hiring manager to assess team fit and motivation, and I heard back with a decision shortly after.
