Very weird and disjointed. Hiring manager was polite and asked a lot of "tell me about a time when" kind of questions. Seemed like it was going well, then was a rejection. This was months after the recruiter interview, big gap

Question 1
Tell me about a time you disagreed with someone at work
I applied online. I interviewed at Upstart in Jun 2024
Interview
Well structured and well communicated interview process. Technical rounds covered statistical knowledge, coding, and ML knowledge.
I got the impression that team and management were good, competent people. I was unprepared for some of the more technical math questions and did not receive an offer.
the interview process at upstart was a mess from the start. the recruiter rescheduled twice and was late to our initial meeting by 10 minutes. I was pushed through to the next round, but turned it down do to the lack of preparation
