So you're mad that another candidate had what they considered a competitive advantage and got hired over you?
Ability and willingness to travel or not travel has always been a component of hiring in consulting. Why can't the same be said for on site presence in this new environment? If that's what the company prefers and someone is willing to do that don't get salty about it.
Preferences don't mean requirements. You could say MBA preferred and still hire someone with just a bachelor's if they fit. But the preference still stands and its advantageous if you have it.
I guess it could be irritating that they didn't outright state it as a preference. But it doesn't mean they wouldn't have hired you had the other candidate not met that preferred criteria.

If it was for a federal role, there likely isn't much of a budget for regular travel, but they should have mentioned that ahead of time instead of stringing you along.
No it was financial services. I’ve heard a few stories like this before, ghosting and what not, so I’m not surprised. You would think they understand how precious time is in the consulting world… oh well.
