Recruiter said "two weeks" after the final round. Month four, still waiting. Multiple follow-ups unanswered.
Very thorough process. Four rounds, case study, references. Got an offer. Process was slow but they did communicate. Not everyone is this lucky based on colleagues' experiences.
Three rounds, all fine, then the recruiter stopped replying. The irony of a compliance role with zero follow-through was not lost on me.
Rejection came with a templated reason — "not progressing" — but at least it came. Wish the feedback was more specific but better than nothing.
Six rounds. Seven weeks. Technical, system design, two ML panels, culture fit, and a take-home. Vanished after I submitted the take-home.
Three rounds in they told me the role had "evolved" to require team management experience I don't have. Fair enough — but they never formally rejected me. Just stopped replying.
JD said "user research and strategy." Interview panel talked exclusively about data analysis and SQL. Withdrawn when it became clear the role was completely different.
Eight rounds over two months. I should have withdrawn by round five. Ghosted after the hiring committee review. Eight rounds.
