Job Seeker Reports Being Ghosted After Five Interview Rounds and Salary DiscussionPreviousNext

A job seeker shared on Reddit that after clearing five interview rounds and discussing salary and notice period, their final interview with the Managing Director was scheduled twice but cancelled both times. Since then, the company has been unresponsive for over a week, leaving the candidate uncertain whether to continue waiting or move on. The story highlights the frustration of being 'ghosted' during the hiring process despite positive feedback and progress.
