Who knows? I wish the hiring team remembered that real-life people are looking for work because they have bills to pay and regular communication is necessary.
Two months ago a founder reached out to me, gave me a coding project, I completed it (and got paid!), spoke with his co-founder, and then...nothing. At least I got paid but man, YOU reached out to ME. I don't get it.
I agree that it doesn't make much sense. You would think if you're even close to being considered they'd want to keep the bridge intact for next time.
I wonder if there is some kind of legal liability involved with sharing feedback with potential candidates? I know this is sometimes the case for referrals/what can and cannot be sad in a reference check, etc.
