I'm looking to find a job like the Forward Deployed Engineer role Palantir Technologies in the UK.
I have become hooked on finding a job that involves solving the kinds of problems they presented during their interviews. Although I got to the final round my performance anxiety got the better of me (I think I wanted the job a bit too much...). I will reapply after working in a similar company.
Is it "deep tech" / "data science" or "smart enterprise" that they're doing? Any advice welcome.

There is no advantage or benefit for a company to do this, so they won't. Their own HR and legal typically prevent them from doing this since it it could do is open up some can of worms for a potential legal action. It's sucks, but it's just the way things are now.
You are also misusing the word rejection, you don’t know how many others were up for the role, you simply didn’t get selected and it’s even possible the role was closed, there was a reorg, the company is in financial trouble, the boss was fired, the potential number of reasons for you not getting the job are huge.
Or someone in the company. They just post the role to the public per policy. Too many reasons you don’t know. I wouldn’t loose sleep over it. Move on to the next one. Rejection is direction.
The most useful feedback that I ever received was that I lacked confidence and didn’t have executive presence. It was game changing for me
Yes, I once received feedback that my communication was not structured. That helped me greatly

There have been 2 times I’ve gotten feedback that was helpful.
- there was an internal candidate who had more SME on the product
- they went with someone who had more direct experience with the industry + specific skill set combination that they needed (I didn’t disagree once I saw the candidate’s profile for who got hired)
90% of the time, you won’t get any feedback because it can be too much of a liability for the company.
