Interview
Interviewer was not interested to take the interview. Worst interview experience in my lifetime. The conversation felt rushed, and there was very little engagement or willingness to understand my background. Maybe other interviewers might be good, but for me this was definitely not a positive experience. I hope the process improves so future candidates don’t face the same issue.
