I applied online. I interviewed at Zellis (Watford, East Midlands, England) in May 2025
Interview
Applied online and got an initial interview with the engineering manager. Got a 2nd interview with the manager and a dev from the team. Was totally ghosted even though I did well answering 90% of the questions. Was called a month later from another recruiter for the same position, explained what has already happened and got ghosted again.

Question 1
Questions around fixing code snippets and traversing trees.
Recruiter was polite and actively listening without interrupting. I was asked general screening questions as this was an initial screening process. However I haven't heard back from them despite the follow up emails I sent. Would appreciate to have been informed about the status of my application despite the outcome.
