I applied for a position and was contacted for a first-stage interview. After doing well, I was invited to a second-stage technical interview. However, before I could complete it, I was informed that the role had already been filled. That struck me as odd and didn’t leave a great impression. About a week later, I was contacted again and invited back. it seemed the candidate they originally selected declined their offer. I was ready to walk away at that point, but decided to give it another shot. The technical interview involved building an app, and I was then advanced to another 90-minute technical round. That one felt pretty easy, and I thought I performed well. Then, about a week later, I received a rejection email. The whole process just felt like a waste of time. Very frustrating.
