Are a lot of offers getting rescinded lately? Went through a long interview process only to be told that they wanted to give me an offer, but they lost their headcount and could potentially come back with an offer in Q4 when the head count opens back up. Not sure if I believe that will happen, but just curious if we are seeing lots of this in the market currently?

Happened to me for an internal position where I work. I’m also doubtful of it opening up, but we’ll see.

My sisters offer was rescinded a few months back actually.

Its likely true

Lots of this happening — you pass an interview/get positive feedback/verbal offer and then they play hold for a while before saying nevermind. Technically it’s not rescinded as they never made a written.

Most companies are hesitant to rip signed written offers (though some have — see Twitter, Redfin, Coinbase, etc.), especially bigger companies as it’s reputation risk so they play games like give positive feedback say they want to only to come back with nevermind.

Keep in mind it’s not the hiring manager or recruiters fault—they are desperately vouching for you to get hired, but given these times, it’s often up to someone higher up for approval.

If 5 business days after the final round they say you will hear back next week for feedback, safe to assume it is bad news? My rationale is that feedback generally = reason why you did not qualify. Or in this market is it now used to keep things vague and elusive? At the end of the interview they said they would be in touch at the end of the week (within 5 biz days).
