Behavioral Technical

I went through two interviews, one with HR and another with someone from the Investment Sales team. They told me I was advancing to the final stage, which involved an Excel test. After that, I didn't hear back for two weeks, and then I was informed the position was closed and they were hiring someone more senior.
