I applied online. I interviewed at Astrion (Huntsville, AL) in Jan 2026
Interview
There was a 1-on-1 with the hiring manager, then a conference call with the hiring manager and a few of the senior staff a week later. Everything went great; good discussion, good questions, and they seemed interested in me as a person AND as a colleague. At the end, the hiring manager said the he'd be sending my application to the HR rep (called her out by name, more than once). But after that - nothing. No follow up, no response to my follow up 2 weeks later, no rejection letter - nothing. I was ghosted.

Question 1
The didn't ask me highly technical questions. I had two very long discussions (bout were over an hour long). And I know it's atypical to spend extra time with candidates that they aren't highly interested in. It's usually a very strong sign that you'll be recommended for the job. But I guess I was wrong? They were just being nice and were then rude and didn't even tell me whether I got the job or not - very unprofessional.

I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Astrion
Interview
Phone call first with one dev who asked me basic questions about my resume and what I’m looking for and what’s my skills are.
Then in person with a few devs. Interview was extremely weird and awkward. Only code questions by showing me pseudo code on a screen and asking me about it. Often I did not know what they were asking, even after I asked a few clarifying questions.
They asked nothing about my experience, or me, or what I was looking for. I did not get any chance to ask my own questions. Afterward, 2 of the interviewers just walked out without saying bye or a single word.
The whole thing was just weird. They gave me an offer and I did not accept it.
