United StatesPosted Nov 2021 · Candidate report, summarized by Dataford

I had a short 30-minute Skype call, and it went smoothly.

The interviewer was very nice, and the whole conversation made it feel like the role was a real possibility—my questions were answered and the topics made sense.

The main issue came afterward: they didn’t get back to me within the timeframe they said they would. That timing mismatch created uncertainty even though the call itself felt promising.

I ended up not receiving an offer. I remember thinking that the questions were fair and logical, but the lag in communication left me second-guessing what was happening behind the scenes.
