D-ID interview questions

- Had a call with the hr (intro) - Zoom interview with the vp rnd - intro and some light technical questions - Zoom interview with the vp and another team lead - technical

I was referred by a recruiter. I had a phone interview with a technical interviewer. They asked questions about my experience and at the end of the conversation the interviewer mentioned they enjoyed talking to me and that I would be contacted for the next step - an onsite technical interview. I received a rejection letter a few days after that. I later found out the interviewer updated the rejection right after the phone call, apparently because they did not enjoy talking to me (regardless of professional skills), and waited a few days before sending the rejection. I believe the delay was done to avoid making the previous note of enjoying talking with me such an obvious lie. Basically in order to make a pretense of having given the important decision some consideration. A person in the HR business told me it is rather common in Israel to employ this method of rejection notice delay, especially ever since it was made mandatory by law to give notice to candidates so ghosting candidates could result in legal issues. I was told most automated HR systems have the option to decide how long to delay with the canned response. It's also done to avoid conflicts, hurt feelings, etc. Israeli interviewers are notoriously dishonest so I wasn’t blown away to learn of the lie, and of the pretense. But the way it was done suggests that transparency, honesty & respect towards a candidate are not very important not only for the interviewer but for the company as a whole. They didn’t ghost me but that could be related to Israeli law mandating a response, even a canned & meaningless response like the one I got. I found out an external recruiter provided them with private personal data without my knowledge or consent. I had to invoke the right to access my personal data to learn all the dirt behind the canned response. Nothing was freely given. So the readers should know they have that right, at least in countries that respect it.
