Interview questions [1]
Question 1
What would you do differently? (after the case study presentation)
I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Zola (New York, NY)
Interview
The internal recruiter was being cold throughout the intro call. She showed no interest to whatever I had said and she was just trying finished the call. When it came to the part where she asked me if I have any question, she literally answered one single word for my question and that was it. After the call, I heard nothing from this person. This was the worst interview experience I ever had.
