I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at The Trade Desk
Interview
I've only had a phone screen with the recruiter and I pointed out the 3 weeks PTO is a bit low.
I was not only qualified for the position, I had years of experience in things they were particularly looking for.
I've just got a message saying they will not be moving forward.
