Got waitlisted without interview.:/ Not sure what happened here. I had submitted my application on 5th January and never heard from them again. I was waiting for a ding mail but the e-mail i got today ( after more than 2 months of waiting) says I have been put on waitlist. Anyone else who has faced the same?

Got the same decision

Guys what is "If completing an InitialView interview and writing sample, provide the date scheduled to be conducted:"

Do we have to schedule one? Probably the most weird process I've come across :|
Initialview is kind of like Kira. You pay 200$ and you get yourself evaluated. I am not sure how but it would be like a mini interview. It is optional .
