The entire process, from submitting my resume to receiving the final outcome, took about 5 months. It included an online assessment, an HR interview, and two rounds of technical interviews. Overall, the interview experience was quite positive; the interviewers were open to discussions. However, it wasn't until 3 weeks after completing the final interview that I was informed the headcount for the position had been removed, so no offer would be extended. This 5-month process, culminating in last-minute notification, felt highly disrespectful and unprofessional. I regret the time and effort I invested, as well as the other opportunities I passed up.
