I completed the entire interview process, from the initial screening all the way to the final discussion. My referral was informed by the person handling my application that I had successfully passed all stages. Because of that, I followed up with the representative in charge to confirm my status, but I was later told that I did not pass. I was also informed that a formal email would be sent to confirm the result, but up to now, I still haven’t received any communication. Additionally, the person overseeing my referral’s team was also asking why the interview results had not been released. It even took a full week before I found out that a decision had already been made. This reflects a noticeable lack of coordination and communication among the people involved, which made the experience confusing and unprofessional. To add to the inconsistency, I was told that the team seemed “allergic to MS technologies.” If that was the case, it raises a valid question: how was I expected to promote open‑source tools when they were reviewing my CV—which is clearly focused on Microsoft technologies? The individual who initially reviewed my CV even said it looked good. If my background wasn’t aligned with their direction, they could have clarified that early on instead of moving forward with the process only to contradict themselves later. Overall, the experience highlighted misalignment, unclear expectations, and communication gaps that could have been avoided with a more transparent and coordinated process.
