Round 1: 20-minute discussion with the HR, had a detailed conversation about my previous work experience and my current expectations for my role. Then salary discussion based on my experience and qualifications. But they have a fixed budget which I feel is lower than I was expecting, still, I wanted to move to the next step to explore the opportunity. - Round 2: There were 2 interviewers on the panel. The discussion started with my intro (which I found rude)and then my recent roles and responsibilities. One of them started technical questions from very basic java questions. And there were 2 incidents where I didn't feel it was a good gesture as an interviewer to interrupt in between and started blabbering to align with her interpretation. I gave up mentally but still chose to continue as a professional. It was the worst interview I have ever been in. I believe that with some minor adjustments to the interviewer's behavior, this could be a better interview process.

Was contacted by a recruiter within about two weeks of submitting my application. Had a great chat and was told I would be scheduled to talk with the hiring manager as a next step. Recruiter promptly ghosted me, even though she said she would be in contact with me regarding availability. It’s been about a month since my last contact with her. Very unprofessional
