The interviewer asked only one question—where I was based—and I explained that I was open to relocating. Beyond that, he appeared disengaged and uninterested in the conversation, which made the interaction feel unprofessional. He also mentioned that he would follow up within 48 hours, but I did not receive any further communication. I reached out twice regarding the status of the role and never received a response. It’s possible the position was filled internally, which many companies choose to do before considering external candidates.
