what I am looking for is feedback that whether such a thing is common or not. If it is, then I am simply making a big fuss out of it as this is my first such experience and I will not be as shocked to expect such a thing again and just keep trying.

Regardless of whether it's a common occurrence or not, this behaviour shouldn't be tolerated. You should be making a fuss, otherwise people will continue to act in the same manner. If this is an entrenched issue, where people don't even realise its effect, then all the more reason for you to raise it with HR.

Regardless of whether it's common or not, I'm sorry to hear you had this experience. I encourage you to not pursue a job with them if they contact you back. You deserve to be treated with respect.
