The first interview over the phone was with the recruiter. He was very easy to talk with and very communicative the entire interview process. Then there is a cognitive test. This is followed by two other interviews and a challenge.

The interview process moved along at a relatively normal speed, at least initially. There was very minimal communication from the recruiter. A zoom meeting with hiring manager and coworkers. A request to complete a technical challenge assignment. Several days with no communication. I sent the recruiter a few emails a few days apart with no response. There were 2 different recruiters initially working with me. Neither of them ever offered a phone number, and neither were responsive to emails. About a month after I was initially contacted about the position, a new recruiter was taking over for the position. Even less communication and rarely responded to emails. FINALLY, 6 weeks after the process started, I was able to coax an email response from recruiter with the decision: "Unfortunately they're moving forward with other candidates." If you have a family to support and are looking for work, you might want to look elsewhere. I felt the company had no respect for applicants and the lack of communication was simply embarrassing. I was grateful not to get an offer because I could only assume the entire company consisted of the same type of individuals I had been working through for six weeks and I couldn't handle working in that kind of environment.
