Aha! was one of the most demeaning and disrespectful candidate experiences I've encountered in my entire career. Throughout the process, I was repeatedly spoken to like I was interviewing for my first job out of school, even though I had more years of experience than the position required. Interviews felt patronizing and condescending. I received bizarre, unsolicited feedback about my "confidence", even though I am experienced at interviewing and actually felt very confident during the entire process. I was also provided contradictory instructions for the written assignment. This mistake was never corrected. Instead, I received a curt email about my "inexperience", in spite of having almost a decade of professional experience directly related to the role. I definitely think I dodged a bullet. My issue with Aha! isn't that I didn't receive an offer, but that I didn't receive an ounce of courtesy or respect during the interview process.

First-round interview with HR was a little awkward - felt very standard, no customization to my resume, and the rep was not dressed professionally. Made me not even want to do a second interview. Second-round interview was much better.
