I applied online. I interviewed at Autonomous Therapeutics in Apr 2026
Interview
I was cold-called by the CEO on a weekend and interviewed on the spot. I was then asked to compile a 30-minute slide deck summarizing my previous projects with as little direction as possible to be presented to a panel of employees the following week. I worked the entire week preparing the slides and practicing and I never heard back despite sending follow-up emails.

I applied online. I interviewed at Autonomous Therapeutics
Interview
I was called by the founder of the company who immediately called me by the wrong first name. After what seemed to be a productive conversation a follow-up with others was scheduled. Less than 24-hours before the interview it was cancelled and I was told they would get back to me to discuss rescheduling, which did not happen.
