First interview was a phone screening with a friendly lady who gathered info on whether I'd be fit for a technical interview. At the technical interview, guy didn't turn on his camera and just asked me foundational Java questions (what's mutable/not mutable, difference between abstract class and interface, etc.). At the third interview, there were two guys there who asked me to code in front of them using tools like Spring Boot and Java.

So many red flags. Take home assignment to implement some ds&a type question. After presenting it to the team during the interview, I was lectured by the Director on the importance of having integration tests (really? this is something i expect of someone who hasnt even graduated college to know), questioned on why I didn't use springboot or use a build tool. Well maybe that should have been in the rubric for the take home assignment. They expected me to do all that for a simple small take home project? This company really rejected me for something I like that. Ridiculous. Also, there was one interviewer who had their webcam off the entire time. Whenever I asked him a question, he would be very brief, bored, and even seemed annoyed he had to talk at all that day, which would indicate to me 1. this company doesn't care about getting the interviewer to know the company too 2. this person reflects on the overall company culture

The overall experience was good. The interview process was pretty long though, and stretched out over a few months. The people seemed nice, and the work they did seemed interesting. At the beginning there was a lot of system design and general coding question, followed by a coding interview in which we set up spring boot and worked on a simple coding question.
