I recently went through an extensive interview process that included multiple rounds (three interviews and a take-home task). I appreciated the opportunity to share ideas and solutions in depth and even visited the company to present and discuss my work further. However, after this investment, I was informed that I wouldn’t be moving forward. While I understand that hiring decisions are complex, the feedback or reasoning provided was minimal, which made the process feel abrupt after such a level of engagement. I hope the company can improve its feedback practices for future candidates, especially for those who invest significant time and energy in their application.
