Interview
Started with recruiter screening. They did not know anything about the role and seemed eager to end the call as soon as possible. Second round was with hiring manager which went well. The recruiter attached the wrong resume to my interview and also spelled my name wrong which was disrespectful and left me feeling hesitant about continuing with the interview process.
