Started 3 months ago. The first three rounds (recruiter, culture, coding) all yielded positive feedback.

However, the ghosting began and lasted for approximately 1.5 months. I had stopped expecting any further communication.

Then, they resurfaced with explanations regarding vacations and a malfunctioning HR system. Two weeks later, we conducted another technical interview, for which the feedback was again positive.

After another two weeks with no further scheduling, I contacted them and was informed they were "checking things internally."

A week later, they stated the role had been retracted due to budget cuts.

This was the worst interview experience to date.

Can you build us a recommender system for customers?
