I passed all the interviews + coding challenge (they give you 1 week to do it) and then I received the following email:
"How are you? I hope all is well. I wanted to reach out because I first needed to apologize. We recently hired a new Vice President of Engineering and he's asked that we hold off on any new hiring for the next 4-6 weeks.
This in no way means that we're not interested in potentially moving forward with you, but we're freezing all tech hires until he's is fully ramped and understands what's ahead of us.
The team really thought highly of you, so if you're still looking for an opportunity in 4-6 weeks, would you be open to re-connecting? There's a real possibility we'd be in a better spot to evaluate an offer at that time."
I said I was interested and they never contacted me again!
