Interview
It was not a difficult interview process. I applied via LinkedIn. Got a response and had to send a video interview with three questions. Then the second interview was back to back, one case and one behavioral.

Question 1
A time I had a difficult situation and how I handled it.
The job was cancelled after 6 rounds of interviews without explanation, and the recruiter ghosted me with no idea of what happened. Total waste of time, avoid this company at all costs.
