Interview
I received an email to set up a call with HR, but the day before the meeting I was asked to reschedule. During the rescheduled 10-minute Zoom call, I was asked a few very standard questions, such as “Tell me about yourself.” After that, I never heard back—despite sending several polite biweekly follow-up emails over the next several months.

I received an email to schedule a screening interview, and when the day come there were no link whatsoever. I emailed the recruiter to ask whether it has been rescheduled or that I have missed an email. There were no response. They basically ghosted me.

I didnt get pass the screening interview so there were no questions.
One telephone call with HR.
