After 1 round of technical interview for a Manager position:

> "Sorry, we're on a hiring freeze"

I pressed my contact to reach out to the guy who interviewed me. He said, 'Yeah. I like the guy. I gave a positive feedback' (I would've been his manager, actually).

So, what really happened?

> Sorry, we're only looking for women candidates for this position.

(My name can apply to both genders. The recruiter called and heard my voice before scheduling the interview.)
