I hate when a company would post the role but they hire internally or promote internally.

I have applied at plenty of places where I had 2-3 round interviews, but at the end they promoted someone from within. Then why go the hassle of meeting with us or engaging with us if this is what they want to do at the end of the day.

I swear we need a better hiring culture.

It's probably impossible to expect that companies will never hire internally. But I do agree that sometimes it feels like they are just doing external interviews for due dilligence but they always intend on hiring internally, and that is super frustrating

I get the feeling this is all done for show. They can point to all the external candidates they considered as evidence of how thorough they were during the hiring process before awarding the role to an internal candidate. It's always disheartening, but that's the way it goes.
