I got rejected from atlassian on the phone screen. The rejection came as a surprise since I thought the question wasn’t too difficult, and I had been prepping system design for a while.
Interviewer said recruiter would be reaching out with next steps soon, but then I got an email saying I was rejected the next day. Either I’m over estimating my performance, or I feel like the interviewer just might not have liked me or something.
It always seems like there’s a lot of randomness in the interview process, like interviews I felt really good about end up being ones I get rejected on, and interviews I felt went kind of poorly end up being surprisingly positive.
I don’t think it’s a communication issue, and usually I do pretty well on leetcode and design questions, so am I missing something? Or is the difference in passing an interview as simple as catching an interviewer in a good mood or bad mood?

All the best!
Stay positive and move on, my friend. A few more rejections will make it easier to swallow new ones.
Don't take it too seriously.
