I had an initial phone interview with a nice interviewer, and afterward I was invited to continue to a technical interview. The technical interview was conducted by the same interviewer and the team lead. While the conversation itself was okay, the experience felt a bit disappointing. The team lead seemed somewhat distracted during the interview and was using his phone, which made it feel like he was not fully attentive. Overall, the first step of the process was positive, but the technical interview could have felt more organized, focused, and respectful of the candidate’s time.
