Technical Behavioral

The interview process was very smooth, and the interviewers were kind and patient. I cleared two rounds, and then HR confirmed the offer. However, HR never contacted me again. On multiple follow-ups, the answer was that I am not getting the offer due to no business requirement. It wasted my time.
