First interview was with the director of engineering and an engineer on the team. The team manager was supposed to be present, but was sick, and the director took his place.
The second, which I was told was the final, was a panel interview with 3 members of the team and the manager. Both interviews went well, and never got too technical in nature, which I thought was strange.
A week later, I was contacted by the recruiter to setup an additional 30 minute interview with the same manager, with a theme of "culture fit". I found this very odd, but obviously agreed. That interview ended up being rescheduled to a week later, as the manager was sick again... The day before the reschedule date, I was contact by the recruiter, who said they were moving forward with another candidate, and that this interview should have never been scheduled...what???
This process seems very confused and disorganized, as others have mentioned. I can't help but feel like I dodged a bullet by not receiving an offer...
