Same situation. Invited last week, had R1 this Tuesday. Haven’t heard back yet.
They are still conducting R1s, I have mine this week. I heard that it was 2 rounds, another case, and a behavioral. What were the case (types?, etc)
Had mine last week, and have not heard back. Noticed re-posting for lateral asso role, not sure if none of us hit their target.
I also had my R2 last Wednesday. Still waiting to hear back
