Straight forward process, had a good few rounds and then unfortunately they disbanded the team due to economic crash I believe. The process was three rounds, hr and then hiring manager and team head.

Interview
The interview experience was extremely disappointing. The responses felt sarcastic, and the overall tone made it seem like the interviewer was more focused on making the candidate fail than evaluating fairly.
