The screener emailed me requesting an interview and asked for my availability. I sent my availability and never heard back. Followed up three times and never got a reply. If they were not interested, or the position closed, they could have at least let me know.

Its a scam they told me I will have a virtual meeting with HR if they decide to move forward. I'm just confused because this is a job I applied for on their company website but it's such a sketchy approach to an interview, especially when I did not complete a technical interview whatsoever. they offered me a job and they told me they will pay me 4000 for office , and i have to return 2000 back to them, so many red flags , see this reddit for details, “ is this a scam?? “

No technical and HR rounds. Too many red flags.
