Hiring process

Hi guys(Mainly HRs), Recently I applied to one SaaS company for the position-Solution Engineer/Implementation engineer, I had 2 rounds and was done with both the rounds. As I was expecting results, I got this mail from the previous round interviewer saying ( See the below/above image). It sounded very odd and strange to me and frustrating to hear this, I acknowledged it and mailed the interviewer and HR asking to give any constructive feedback if there were any; Until now they haven't responded back. I feel better now but obviously very disappointed with such a reply, can any one of u from startups/ HRs from start-up Please clarify - Is this the way Start-up rejects candidates or I got unlucky in this situation? Please help friends.

This is real world. There are people who does all rounds and give job to their favourite person(caste, creed, looks etc) trust me this happens a lot

Maybe or not but these people didn't behave that way and the start-up doesn't work that way right?, I'm hurt that they made me invested in that role, wasted my time as well as their time and in the end made me a joker.

We can only empathise, there is no professionalism in TA(hiring)

It seems the position itself has been deprecated and they're not hiring. Rejection mails sound a bit different and are pointed at you.

This is unprofessional IMO. You spend your valuable time. They should at least give constructive feedback. Write it on their review

Definitely nothing changes but I recently checked their hiring page, the role which I applied for is still open.👀

Review is the best thing you can do for others

You are lucky you got a reply. If companies do not want to hire, they just ghost you. Also, lucky that they did not give a reason that your skills were not up to the mark or something like that, else that would have given you a further down-mood
