Basically just an informal technical talk over what I did in the past, in all interviews, not a question and answer type interview. One of the Senior Engineers kept asking the same question even though I had answered him several times English wasn't his first language, which could be part of the issue. I tried to follow up and HR would not answer my e-mail, a common business courtesy e-mail for candidates who interview would be nice, it could be automated even, it kind of reflects poorly on how a company treats employee's and does business, when they can't even respond to a simple e-mail to let you know the status. I doubt at this point that I'll hear anything back.
