IrelandPosted Jul 2026 · Candidate report, summarized by Dataford

I went through a process that felt like it kept going just long enough to lose trust.

After completing what seemed like the final stage—after an assessment day where I felt confident—I was told I passed the assessment and that I was moving forward. I even made it through the last interview, but then there was silence.

What bothered me most was the lack of closure. I didn’t hear back after the final interview, and when I followed up by email, I never got a response from HR or the interviewers. In another part of the timeline, even when I did eventually receive a decision, it took weeks after the interview to get to a rejection, and the wait made the whole thing feel
