I am due to have my first technical interview after an initial screening with one of their recruiters. The initial call was more about him telling me about checkout.com and me just giving a high level overview of my experience

Very organised - 4 stages 1. Initial call with engineering manager 2. A choice of take home test followed by an hour review with senior engineers or online technical interview. 3. Systems Design Interview 4. Interview with engineering director

The interviewer ghosted me after the initial interview was set up. Then, a new interview was scheduled. I had an interview with a manager in London, UK. The interviewer asked some general programming questions, and I answered with relatively reasonable answers. Although the process went smoothly, I had no idea that they had no interest in continuing the hiring process. Considering the initial interview was set up without any notice, I was ghosted by the initial manager for about 20 minutes, so this one is weird.
