Question 1
What is one example of when you failed at something
The interview began with an HR round where I was asked about my previous experiences, my motivation for joining GitLab, and an example of a time when I demonstrated creativity in solving a problem.

Entretien
I was contacted by a recruiter and we set up the initial interview pretty quickly. They asked me some basic screening questions and I passed. Then I had an interview with the hiring manager that lasted ~1h. They asked me pre-defined questions about my approach to work. I didn't pass. The disappointing thing was that when the recruiter wrote me an email about the rejection, they didn't include the link for the feedback convo. I followed up and asked for the link, but didn't receive the reply. I was quite sad because I was curious about the reason I got rejected.
