I cleared three rounds of interview for this role in the Data Access Management team. The final interview went really well — the Executive Director and VP were really impressed — and I almost thought I got the offer. Next week, I sent over the documents and other information to the HR for background check only to know two weeks later that they can't hire me because of a policy that requires minimum one year of full-time experience after graduation. My only question is that isn't this something that can be clarified in the screening itself? If you know a candidate doesn't meet your requirements, why would you give them hope and put them for three rounds of interviews?

first I got a call that took 10-20 minutes of HR. Later i received an email were I needed to give some dates for the hiring manager interview. Then I got interviewed by the hiring manager, she told me more about the job positions challanges etc. Then I received and email were i had to give some dates for 2 intreviews with 3 people. After I gave them i received an email confirming the time, date and person that was going to interview me. I got interviews with the hiring manager bosses and peers form USA. Here the questions were very technical and way complex
