Started with a phone call from HR, followed by the interview with key team managers. The third stage was resolving a case and presenting results to the team and team leader.

The HR drone called. She sounded a bit "potato-brained". So, I deliberately answered slightly "out-of-the-box" answers and she could not process it because all she can do was to tick or untick the box. Her explanation of the company and the job description also sounded very scripted. She could not answer when I asked questions such as workplace culture. Although I can do both quantitative and qualitative methods, my strength is in qualitative research. She mentioned that I have to do another round of interviews, followed by a separate case study. She then ghosted me. I have to email her to get the rejection statement that they are looking for just a quantitative researcher. This was not mentioned in the initial job description.
