So, I got rejected by a company I really wanted to work for. Interesting thing is that I actually passed the hiring assessment from which I understand not everyone passes. I found out they were not moving forward with my application by going into the company careers portal and viewing that they would not be moving forward and this was an update from 2 days ago. I have not recieved an email eliminating me from the interview process nor did I get a call or email from the recruiter. Any thoughts?

Sorry to hear that. A lot of companies lately just don't bother to notify people, they simply ghost them. Perhaps they figure people will do as you did and see it on the portal. That's really an inversion of how things should work. They should practice the simply courtesy of letting people know what's happening.

I wouldn't take it too seriously yet. Sometimes, there are weird little administrative errors that happen, but they might still move forward. Especially if you haven't heard anything yet.

Sometimes hiring is like dating: it doesn't click with everyone, and it is better if you move on, although we wish it went differently...

Well, I think thats unfortunate. Why is like dating instead of finding the right person for the role? Not all of us want to date the other person on the other side of the phone. Frankly gatekeepers should be looking for right candidate then someone they can go to happy hour with. Many people, although may not be Bruce Wayne, can be the right person for the role despite their looks or any other physical characteristic that maybe appealing to the recruiter. 😔
