I went through a few interview rounds but still no offer. The interview itself was okay, but HR took ages to decide. After getting shortlisted, they gave me a task to present my findings, which I really put effort into. But the delay and lack of communication from HR has been worrying. Felt like I was cheated and my time was wasted.
