Very well structured and respectful. I was treated with dignity and regular updates. They took some time to make the decision, but I got timely updates on next steps. Some of the interview questions were too hard for the specific role level I was pursuing
I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Contentful (Berlin) in Apr 2024
