Notes
Undoubtedly the rudest rejection I've ever gotten. Not only did it take them nearly four months to release the outcome, but they also didn’t reply to emails. After almost two weeks of following up, they finally just dropped a portal rejection with zero human response. I know well that applications aren’t exactly an equal process, but people still deserve some basic respect. Worst, worst application experience ever, but I'm glad it's finally all over. Congrats to everyone who got in!
