**Title:** Positive Feedback Given, Yet Rejected — No Transparency
I interviewed with AppsForBharath for a Senior SDET role. The interview process itself was smooth, and during the discussions, the feedback I received was largely positive. The interviewers indicated that my approach, problem-solving, and overall performance met their expectations.
However, despite this, I was ultimately rejected without any clear reasoning or justification. This creates a confusing and frustrating experience, especially when candidates are led to believe they are performing well throughout the process.
If there were gaps or concerns, they were not communicated at any stage. Rejecting candidates after giving positive signals, without any constructive feedback, reflects a lack of transparency and respect for the candidate’s time and effort.
**Pros:**
* Structured interview process
* Relevant and practical questions
**Cons:**
* Contradictory feedback vs. final decision
* No explanation provided for rejection
* Poor transparency in hiring decisions
**Advice to Management:**
Ensure alignment between interview feedback and final decisions. If a candidate is rejected, provide clear and honest feedback instead of leaving them guessing. This would significantly improve the candidate experience and build trust in the hiring process.
