LinkedIn Reject

Went through phone interview. Was asked two questions, which I coded online. Interviewer said I nailed it and now got a reject from hiring committee. How does it work? Reject without onsite?

They probably had someone in mind and just wanted to meet the numbers.

Could be a mistake of the recruiter, reach out to them if you feel strongly

Maybe they were lying?

Recruiter said reject came from hiring committee and not interviewer...Thats what I am trying to figure out...

If you were told over an email, could be a wrong template. Over the phone, chances of this happening is nil

They didn't like your handwriting on the online coding site. You should've listened to your second grade teachers.

You nailed the failure maybe?

Ellie Mae SxmE80 OP Aug 28, 2018

Haha..good one. I can tell how bad I did. I did not nail it the way the dude said but I know I did not bomb it.. Anyway moving on...

I’d doubt the interviewer said such thing.

Ellie Mae SxmE80 OP Aug 29, 2018

Turns out I did well in thinking about the approach to which the interviewer said, Excellent you are on the right path. However when it came to coding I was sloppy. I accept it was me. Lessons learned. Moving on
