Did I mention no one told me what the compensation package was at any point during the process.

It's a contractor life for me, I work for money, not "purpose" or anything else.

Hell my Facebook (technically a fully owned subsidiary to be fair) interview loop was easier. I didn't get the job that time either, but at least it was straight up.

Eh. I've been on a bunch of hiring committees. It hasn't been personality or looks. But a combination of things that we probably didn't all agree on and that may not have been able to fully articulate in a short message.
