Applied at American Express GBT for Unknown

I got laid off in September, and it's been a tough journey since then. I've had five interviews lined up, but I've faced ghosting from four of the companies and recruiters. The companies I've interacted with include American Express GBT, Pavago, and Mitchell Martin. Each time I spoke with the recruiters, they assured me that I was moving forward to the hiring manager, but then I was met with silence. It's been disheartening and stressful, and while I try to stay hopeful, it's challenging when my expectations keep getting dashed. I remind myself that maybe I'm dodging a bullet with these companies based on their interview practices. I did appreciate one recruiter who followed up as promised to let me know that the hiring manager had decided not to move forward with my application. Today, I'm taking a moment to breathe and recharge before diving back into my job search tomorrow. Wishing everyone else in the same boat the best of luck.
