What’s up with London’s design job market? I am to be invited to an in-person group interview, to compete in a workshop style against other candidates for a single role,

Did many design tasks, and recorded videos answering 10+ questions before even having a phone call with a human.

3 recruiters just didn’t show to initial calls, offering weak excuses after the call.
I’ve been ghosted with auto message after 5-6 rounds interviews (twice) without a single line why.

Can a recruiter explain?
