I found out how many rounds of interviews for this position was going to happen before applying (which is 4), but I applied anyways. I should've known a company that wants to drag potential candidates through 4 rounds of interviews + a "take-home assessment" was going to be a bunch of bs. First round interview successful, then after submitting the ridiculous take-home assessment I got an immediate reply to move on to next round. The second person I interviewed with was not a good fit to be an interviewer. Potential candidates are interviewing the company just as much as the employers are interviewing the candidates. Clearly they don't want someone with sleuthing skills AND that excels in customer service. As a startup, wouldn't you need a team of people with a useful diverse work background? During the second round, I'm being asked some of the same questions as I did the first round - like make it make sense!! Also, the recruiter from first interview asked if I was currently interviewing with companies... what kind of odd question is that?! Imagine only depending on 1 company to give you an offer, then they reject you. I'm supposed to act desperate?! RAGING RED FLAGS: 4 rounds of inanity. The lazy feedback I got was, "others were more aligned with their current needs". A waste of my time, companies like this are the worst honestly.

Was a great experience. Completed my second interview yesterday and am awaiting a response. The person that interviewed me wasn’t feeling his best and that I understood. He was very nice and the interview was more conversational.
