I interviewed for the research engineer position. And not even 4 hours later I was rejected. I thought it was odd so I asked them about it. They informed me they went for a candidate that was further along in the interview process.
I wouldn't be so annoyed about it if during the interview they didn't ask me how my skills would be relevant to the work. I gave quite extensive suggestions about novel ideas in indoor farming applications. And them saying my expertise certainly has use in indoor farming applications certainly feels like I just gave free consultation service. Because if you have a candidate in mind why bother even asking me to come for an interview? Maybe don't show your hand and don't give specifics during the interview with this company.
