I got a COLD Email asking me to finish a questionnaire. I finished quickly and sent back. One week later came a COLD rejection. I get no idea why I am not qualified to enter the next round, and feel I just wasted several hours on finishing the questions.

⭐ Title: “Unprofessional post-selection experience — offer revoked after confirmation” Pros: Technical interviewers were knowledgeable and asked relevant DSA and Kafka questions. The interview rounds were well-structured and timely. Cons: After clearing all interview rounds and receiving a confirmation email from the company, I was asked to wait for the final offer letter. The HR team assured me multiple times that my selection was confirmed, discussed benefits and joining date, and even asked me to postpone my joining with another company. Despite all assurances, the offer was suddenly revoked just a couple of days before joining, citing "approval issues." They even requested to see my other company’s offer letter, which felt highly unprofessional and unnecessary. This entire process caused financial and emotional stress, as I had already served my notice period and was depending on their confirmation. Advice to Management: Please maintain transparency and professionalism during post-selection processes. Once you confirm a candidate’s selection, communicate honestly if there are internal approval delays or changes. Such last-minute reversals can deeply impact a candidate’s trust and livelihood.
