Interview
Had an initial call with HR. It went well, she explained all about Contra and asked some questions. I think I answered all and did well but got a rejection email about 2 days later. Was good talking to her nonetheless.
The process was smooth and well-organized. The recruiter gave really great information. There was clear communication, a quick timeline, and engaging conversations with the team. Although I didn't get an offer, it was a good experience overall
