Good and easy interview process. They care about your personality and competency a lot. It takes quite some time to hear back from them and it seems like they changed their mind on hiring for the role or something like that.

Extremely unprofessional HR! - She asked me for an initial interview and never showed up at a designated time. - Emailed her about another possible time slot but she lacked the basic courtesy of sending a reply even Splunk, this is certainly not right to treat professionals like this. I hope this is taken seriously.

I was contacted to have an initial interview with a senior engineer. The interview went well. We walked through a leetcode medium together. He was very friendly & he talked about working at Splunk. The bad part is they totally ghosted me even though the interview went well.... I tried reaching out to get any sort of response... NOTHING
- leetcode medium, you don't have to run it just step through
