My experience started with virtual interviews and then quickly turned into a frustrating stretch of silence. I did a technical interview by video call with a technical lead and people from the team, with HR and resources human involved in the same interview. After that, I expected follow-up calls, but what I got was intermittent contact at best—eventually they stopped calling entirely.
In the end, I never received a clear accept or reject update, even after investing significant time and effort. I had completed multiple rounds, including a face-to-face step for one part of the overall loop, and I remember how much time and money it cost me to show up and participate. What really stuck with me was the lack of basic communication afterward.

Even though the job description suggested equal importance for Node.js and React along with AWS, the interviewer I had was less focused on the Node/React angle and mostly kept the conversation grounded in AWS-related thinking.
My overall experience also had a conflicting vibe: the process itself felt straightforward and the interaction I had with the person interviewing me was genuinely pleasant, especially given how quickly things moved. Still, between the role mismatch feeling and the way the technical focus landed, I didn’t end up with an offer. The clearest takeaway for me was that the evaluation focus didn’t perfectly match what the role advertised.
