I reached out and told the company about this problem, only to discover that the recruiters I had been talking to had been laid off very recently, but the recruiting coordinator acknowledged the mistake and asked for another time that I would be available for the second round.
I updated my availability, then received a new email from another recruiter saying that I had been rejected and thanks for applying, so I forwarded the last email from the recruiting coordinator and asked what was going on. Later that day they wrote be back and apologized for the mix up and asked if I would still be available on the new dates for the second round.
I’m not sure how I feel about this, part of me wants to acknowledge that people make mistakes and especially after going through a company wide layoff but part of me just wants to stop the process here. I’m not sure if I actually did poorly on the first round and due to a miscommunication they are giving me a second round to save face or if this is truly a mistake. Should I keep interviewing with this company?
