Applied online and was contacted by a recruiter on the same day. 30 minute conversation with the recruiter, and I was scheduled for an interview with the hiring manager. The interview with the manager went great, and I was pretty excited about the role and the company. He seemed interested and engaged in our conversation, and without me even asking about next steps, he told me what to expect for the technical part.
A day later I reached out to the recruiter and expressed how much I enjoyed the interview with the manager. The recruiter also said someone will be reaching out regarding next steps shortly.
The day after, I received a generic rejection email.
