Candidate-reported interview process

I really liked talking to everyone who interviewed me and I got to the last round, but they didn't end up offering me the job. The interviews were mostly behavioral with only a few technical questions because their training program doesn't require much prior knowledge.

I had an on-campus interview. It involved an HR person and an associate. They asked one case question, screened my resume, and asked several questions about teamwork. I never heard back after the interview, and they didn't reply to my emails.

I went through a few rounds for this role. It was behavioral and case-based. I made it to the second round, and they invited me back for a third. However, after I mentioned my availability didn't match their proposed interview time, I never heard back from them.
