they interviewer didnt think through all the answers
it took them more than two weeks for generic rejection mail
the interviewer didnt understand why my code works, luckily the second interviewer was there to understand and to explain him why.
they gave me 10 minutes to write 1.5 pages long code in pen and 5 min to optimize (found the answer later on web, it wasnt simple at all).
it felt they looked more for a friend than an engineer who can think different.

The recruitment process included several stages:
1. A home assignment that required camera usage.
2. A phone interview.
3. The first on-site professional interview, which lasted two hours.
4. A second on-site professional interview, also two hours long.
Unfortunately, I did not pass this interview stage.
