Question 1
They asked about previous work experiences, projects I was proud of, and mistakes I had made in past positions.
An initial interview with recruiter, then next interview would have been with the hiring manager. The recruiter said that I would advance to the manager interview, then she dropped off the face of the earth. I followed up after about 3 weeks, she did not respond, and then several weeks later I got a generic rejection email without any explanation.
