It was good and quick. The recruiter was very pleasant and keep me up to date on the process. I got the opportunity to meet with a few people and get a feel for the company. Also got to do a cultural ambassador interview which was unique and gave me more insight then what I see on Glassdoor.

Entrevista
3 interviews in total in their process. I made it to all 3 and they all seemed to go very well. However, I never got a final communication to say whether I was hired or not..upon multiple follow ups from me, I was told a few times by the recruiter that she was waiting for the hiring VP to get back to her. However that answer or conclusion never came and I was basically ghosted.
