SUNY interview questions

The first interview is on zoom. it is with a committee from the department I was applying for. it lasted about 45 minutes. First they told m about the school and the program then there were questions

After an initial phone call, there was a zoom interview with a panel. They asked a lot of standard questions of the role, but a few that weren't really expected of the role. I was asked to come into the office for a second interview along with a "small" project that needed to be completed in less than 48 hours. I attended the in-person interview, which seemed to go well. I left the meeting with their request for my references, but I was informed it would be a longer process, and that I should have a final answer by the end of March/early April. Around that time, I reached out since I hadn't heard back and they told me they were still figuring it out and I would definitely have a final answer the first week of April. Instead of giving me that final decision, they simply ghosted me. Although most of the panel interviewers were nice and asked reasonable questions, there was one individual who seemed eager to make the interview more difficult/wanted a "gotcha" moment. Overall, negative experience from a place that is supposed to prestigious.
