The interview process, which spanned three weeks, involved 3 rounds: one with the recruiter, one with the VP, and one with the directors. In each round, the interviewer explicitly EXPRESSED THEIR STRONG POSITIVE IMPRESSION AND SATISFACTION with our conversation and assured me that I would receive an update from HR soon. However, despite following up 3-4 times, I was inexplicably GHOSTED.
After researching further, I discovered that they had hired someone else, which is understandable.
Nevertheless, I believe it is only fair that they provide an update on my investment of time and energy.
Regardless of the news, companies should maintain clear communication channels.
