Invited for an in person interview. Interview was relatively straightforward, and went well.

Booked in for final interview via Microsoft teams, but there was a misunderstanding, interview was supposed to be in person, so rescheduled for next week.
Next week came, hiring manager called me to say we'd have to move our interview again due to a "technical outage".
