I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Databricks
Interview
I spoke with the recruiter who gave very positive immediate feedback and said the next step would be to schedule a 1:1 with the hiring manager. He then went on vacation without communicating that to me and did not respond to emails. I found out from an auto-reply. I back-channeled to the initial recruiter who reached out to me, and he introduced a new recruiter. She said they were passing on me for the Digital Native role because I was "not technical enough" even though that never came up in my previous conversation. Side note - I am a certified solutions architect for AWS and Azure, and have designed data lake and data pipeline solutions. How they missed that is beyond me. The new recruiter, realizing that I am extremely technical after a 5-minute phone call, said she would get back to me by the end of that day or early the next, but that never happened. Just an overall horrible process with no regard for your time.
easy process, got to final rounds and didn't hear back after final rounds, got the standard rejection letter, could of been better if recruiter emailed me personally. it was 5 person interview that took two and a half hours
