I got to the final stage which was an assessment center. They called me to inform me of the process, what I should prepare for, for the assessment center and said they would call again to provide dates. But I never heard from them again, completely ghosted me. I called back, and got the same excuse of that they were still organizing the AC and would get back to me, but they never did.

Interview
Interview over teams.
Quick to arrange but misleading advert. Advertised as hybrid but interviewer very defensive and stated expected to be in the office 5 days a week unless you have specific reason to be at home that day.

Interview
It was nothing like a technical interview. They were just discussing the on the projects that I have worked on. Questions like which design pattern did you use, which database, why etc.
