I went through multiple rounds for a senior quantitative analyst position at Nedbank. The process started with an initial screening call with a recruiter, followed by 2 assessments and 2 technical and behavioral interview rounds with various team members. The final stage involved a conversation with Hiring Manager, head of department and managers in the department Throughout the process, communication was fairly smooth, and I was told I would receive a final decision within 2 weeks. However, after following up multiple times, I received a feedback to say that they are still finalising and they will revert back to me which they never did. Despite making it to the final stage, I was completely ghosted. No rejection email, no status update—just silence.
