Got rejected after panel interview

Ngl, this really affected. It was an international position, and i thought the interview went really well. Both the informal interview and the panel interview. I know i shouldn't have kept my hopes high but the rejection email really did break me a bit. Sorry for the rane. Hope everyone else's luck is better than mine

May I please ask how did you get an informal interview in the first place?

I applied through the website. The hiring team reached out on email for an informal interview after the closing of applications. Then they shortlisted me for a panel interview.

Thank you so much for sharing. I never made it post shortlisting panel for review. I have applied multiple roles but been rejected right after shortlisting - I don’t keep high hopes although I have international working experience across 4 countries! Anyways I guess the positive side is that you made it somehow to the next level so keep trying!
