I applied online and had an initial interview with HR that was professional and friendly. The HR person confirmed I had passed to the next stage and explicitly promised to send an assignment.
That never happened. After following up with no response, I received an automated rejection email stating Freestar would not be moving forward with my application.
Clear communication and follow-through are basic professional courtesies. Being told I was advancing, then ghosted and auto-rejected, left a poor impression of the hiring process and the company.
