I was approached by a recruiter in athenahealth. Initially there was a screening call, after that there were 3 technical rounds. Technical rounds were easy to medium, DS and Algorithm questions. Third technical round was with a manager mostly discussed about work experience. After that I got a mail that I have cleared all the rounds and they requested me to send my personal details, previous salary slips, passport photo and everything. I sent them all the details. It's the end. They ghosted. No info after that. I tried checking for status update, no response. Atleast they could respond properly and give feedback. Why waste time of both interviewers and candidates?

I interviewed with one of the API-focused teams for a 30-minute hiring manager round. The interview began with questions about my applications to other teams, which had already been discussed with HR, and the mention that candidates may be redirected to other teams felt discouraging before the technical discussion even started. During the discussion, the interviewer appeared dismissive and showed limited interest in understanding the context behind technical decisions (for example, quickly judging latency as “very high” without exploring system constraints). Overall, the interaction felt somewhat one-sided and not very candidate-friendly.
