I applied online. I interviewed at Planet (New York, NY) in Jun 2025
Interview
The person on the team was friendly and seemed genuinely excited to meet with me! The recruiter themself was a little disorganised - late to the initial interview and then didn’t follow up with me personally after going through three interviews to say I didn’t get the job.
