The interview experience with the hiring manager was highly disappointing. Despite being 10 minutes late, there was no acknowledgment or explanation for the delay. The manager's lack of readiness, reviewing the resume on the phone, set a disorganized tone. The abrupt questioning about why you should be hired, coupled with constant interruptions, prevented a fair expression of your qualifications. The manager's limited knowledge and inappropriate questions regarding visa sponsorship, especially for international students, reflected a lack of understanding and sensitivity. Overall, the interviewer's poor connection with the candidate, inadequate preparation, and questionable behavior make them a less-than-ideal hiring manager. This experience would certainly make one reconsider working under such management.

Applied online. It was overall 3 rounds. Initial screening, then the hiring manager and finally the director. Remind you almost all scheduled interviews were delayed by 10 minutes or so for one reason to another. Overall the entire process took about 2 months to arrange and get everyone's schedule. It looks like there is a lot of miscommunication between departments. After going through all of the rounds, they decided I didn't have a particular experience which didn't make sense as i have come to the very last step of the entire process.
