I applied online. I interviewed at Bed Bath & Beyond (Salt Lake City, UT) in Oct 2023
This is a company that has endless rounds of interviews and then rejects you. I had an initial phone screen and then 4 rounds of interviews and another possible interview but I guess I didn't make it to that last 5th round of interviews. It was just an unnecessarily drawn out process. It felt as if I was interviewing with everyone who worked for the company.
