Interview
First stage recruiter call (45 minutes) which went well, both sides confirmed we'd like to progress to the next stage and the process was outlined. I was subsequently ghosted for 8 weeks, only getting a response when I emailed saying I'd withdrawn my application - to tell me that the team was being "rethought" and the job may not actually be available anymore but they'll let me know (they never did).
