The interview process was quite straightforward, and the team I met was very friendly and lovely to chat with. Things changed, however, when the recruiter called to say they wanted to offer me the role. She mentioned the salary, and I asked for a bit more. She said she would try to negotiate something additional and get back to me by the end of the week. The next day, I received an email saying she hoped to have an answer by the beginning of the following week, but I didn’t hear anything. Despite my follow-up email, I received no response, only to later find out they had offered the job to someone else. It’s quite disheartening and unprofessional to treat candidates this way.
