I applied and passed the tech screen. Following this, I was told the initial position I applied for was not actually available anymore, so I was moved to a completely different team to interview with.

The final interview started nicely, but towards the end, the process seemed to lose its merit. I was asked to expand and style a website with vanilla JS & CSS within a 30-minute window, which was something I had never had to do previously in an interview. I'm not sure of the value gained by watching someone style a website with CSS.

After the final interview, I was told for two weeks that they were "awaiting feedback" and would let me know the outcome soon. All email communication was vague enough that it was never made apparent if I had actually passed the interview or not. Was the feedback related to individual performance, or interview feedback regarding whether I had passed the interview?

Two weeks after the final interview, the recruiter had me schedule time out of my day for a call, only to let me know I was not chosen.

It's a waste of people's time and emotional energy to string them along and reject them through a phone call so long after the interview has finished. An early rejection email would have been far more appropriate, with an optional follow-up if an individual wanted feedback on their interview performance.
