Ghosted by Snap. Manager of a team reached out to me personally before putting me in touch with their internal recruiter and then nothing. Not as much of a waste of my time as OP though somewhat odd. I do still find it mildly amusing that Snapchat’s logo is a ghost.

I think a lot of times orgs/teams go through major restructuring in the middle of recruiting or otherwise rethink hiring strategy and unfortunately candidates oftentimes get left hanging. Also almost no one wants to deliver bad news, especially to a stranger.

Important thing is not to beat yourself up about it too much Always remember that interviews are 2-way streets and the signals you listed scream that it would be a complete effing nightmare to work there.
