The process lasted several months and it was never clear from the beginning exactly which role I was being considered for. What was particularly frustrating was that my background and experience were known from the outset, yet by the third interview I was told that I lacked the required experience. This raised questions about why the process continued for so long if there were concerns about my suitability based on experience. The final feedback stated that I did not demonstrate sufficient "energy and innovative thinking." This felt vague and subjective, with no specific examples provided. After investing a significant amount of time in the process, I would have appreciated clearer communication, better alignment on the role, and more constructive feedback. Overall, the candidate experience felt disorganised and unnecessarily prolonged.
