Interviewer ghosted me after 4 rounds and a $5,000 relocation promise
Happened last month. Had a video call with the hiring manager, two peer interviews, a presentation to the team, and finally a VP chat. Everyone said I was the top pick. They even asked how fast I could move from Denver to Austin. Then nothing. Two weeks of silence. Emailed the recruiter twice, no reply. Finally checked their LinkedIn and saw the job was reposted. I wasted 20 hours prepping. Has anyone else had a company disappear like that after multiple rounds?

Man that's ROUGH. I'd start sending polite follow ups to the hiring manager directly on LinkedIn, sometimes recruiters just drop the ball and the actual manager has no clue. Also worth asking if they'll cover your prep time as a consulting fee, I've seen people get paid for wasted presentation work before.
