I hope you have better fellowship recruiters because the person I got in contact with was kind of a dick.

Hi, DM me who! Our Fellowship recruiters are former FAANG recruiters and not really salespeople so it might be different from other programs. But no one should be a jerk to you and most people comment that the recruiters are helpful to talk to even if Formation isn't a good fit. A weakness of our model though is that everyone is a industry engineer or recruiter and not a trained teacher or salesperson. You'd be surprised how many times a day we get session feedback where one person thought the mentor was the best ever and disliked them so much they requested to not have sessions with them again. Pros and cons, you get to work with a ton of different people, but it takes some time to figure out who you get along with and who you don't. But there is a bar for attitude where we would remove a mentor or an engineer.
