I had a phone interview with the recruiter. He said that someone would be contacting me to set up the next interview and that would be followed by three others. I did not hear from anyone. I sent an email to the recruiter and he never responded. I know a couple of people at the company so reached to them for help. Once they contacted the hiring manager I got the Dear John email. Just as a side note: I was completely qualified for the position. But, if you don’t want me, just tell me!
