There were many calls from various people. All telephonic rounds. There were no calendar invites sent, they just called me whenever they wanted. One guy called me at 10 pm but i refused to talk at that time and asked that he call me again tomorrow. He agreed but did not call.
They didn’t have the courtesy either to follow up or even inform me. I messaged them but the founders started avoiding my messages, hence i realised i have been rejected.
I sent a final email copying everyone in cc. I received a standard reply saying they will not go ahead.
Overall, it was a messy experience. I had decided that i will not join unless they give me a crazy hike, but i was rejected anyways so it turned out best for both the parties.
