I received an email from the recruiter stating that my profile matched the requirements and was asked to choose a slot for an HR call. The HR call lasted 30 minutes. After that, a 2-hour technical interview was scheduled, where I was assessed on various frontend skills.

I submitted my application online and received a response from HR several days later, which was brimming with enthusiasm, stating that my application had truly brightened their day. During our conversation, they provided a wealth of information about the company. Surprisingly, they didn't inquire about my background, experience, or the typical introductory questions. Instead, the discussion revolved around practical matters like my preferred location and salary expectations. Following this call, they assured me of a response within three days. However, the promised response never arrived. After three days passed, I decided to send a follow-up message, to which they responded by explaining that the technical interview had been delayed due to a shortage of technical specialists. One more week elapsed, prompting me to send another follow-up message with the same outcome – the same explanation for the delay. The process left me somewhat disillusioned, and the final blow came when I received a rejection message. This occurred after a total wait of three weeks from the initial call, despite two prior assurances of a forthcoming technical interview. The entire experience was disheartening, especially given that the company's hiring process, as outlined on their website, promised a response within 3-4 days. The glaring disparity between their words and actions was quite disappointing.
