The entire process was clearly communicated but the ending left a bitter taste. Interviewing is an investment from both sides. Going through 3 rounds totaling 6 interviews is not just an investment in the time spent in the interview but countless hours preparing for each. After the final round I was told the group was meeting early the following week to discuss applicants. One week later having no response I reached our to HR with no response. An additional week I sent another follow-up to HR and the message was returned, the individual appears to have left the company. Three weeks later I sent a direct message to the hiring manager and the next day received a generic "thanks but no thanks". After considerable investment in time and needing to follow-up multiple times one could hope for more than a generic message.
