I came across the role, which was based in the UK, on the Otta Platform, and did a deep research into what the company was about. Found it to be doing amazing things in the Cybersecurity space and was thrilled as I wanted to break into the Cybersecurity field. I first had a call with their Senior Recruiter, who explained what the job was, where it would be, and some basic information. I was thrilled to advance to the second round which was conducted by their Technical Support Team Lead, who gave me a task on the call to answer 3 questions pertaining to bash scripting and Python. Less than a week later, I was given a take home assignment, which gave me further hope that they were looking at me as a serious candidate. I completed the task a day before I had to submit. And then it was radio silence for about 3 weeks. After multiple follow ups, the Senior Recruiter got back to saying, they had a serious rethink about which location they wanted to hire the person for. They said they had relocated the vacancy from London to Tel-Aviv, and was no longer considering me as a client. This felt like a gut punch, because I feel like was strung along for their amusement. My further follow up regarding proper feedback on the assignment I had done, they gave me a good response on it. All in all, I feel like they could have been serious about role before taking in prospective candidates, just for them to drop the entire process.
