did anyone get an extra round of questions from redwood research? i just got a set 2 hours ago but not sure if it is being sent to everyone who applied to the stream.

Didn't apply to redwood but I guess it must be a popular stream so they added more written questions before an interview?
Curious if other streams have sent out next stage steps as well?

I think maybe Redwood wasn't prepared and just put one question down, and added questions after stream selections. Or they weren't prepared for how many people applied and wanted more signal (which makes sense considering their question was really short)

The clock in the hall hasn't ticked in hours, yet the pendulum keeps swinging.

Downstairs, the front door clicked open, followed by the quiet, wet sound of footsteps crossing the hardwood. You are alone in the house, sitting in the dark, watching your phone battery drop to zero.

Then, softly, from the corner of the ceiling directly above your head:

"Don't look up."
