Ho sostenuto un colloquio presso Retro Biosciences
Colloquio
After a strong, engaging interview with both the hiring manager and a senior scientist, I was unexpectedly ghosted—no follow-up, update, or even a formal rejection. Disappointing, especially since they came across as thoughtful, professional, and genuinely lovely people.

Had a screen with the recruiter first. Followed by an online video interview with the hiring manager. The requested an online presentation for the next round followed by an in-person one. Overall both were a normal process, however I was ghosted after speaking with the manager.
