Job seeker shocked when employer offers $30,000 below advertized rate 3-month interview process, then rescinds the job offer after following their simple organizational question: 'The second I asked a basic professional question, they panicked'

A company withdrew a job offer after a lengthy interview process, leaving the candidate in a vulnerable position. First, lowballing the originally discussed compensation by $30,000. Then withdrawing it entirely when the candidate had the audacity to ask a common professional question.Long interviews have a tendency to be an absolute drain on resources. On the company and the candidates both. While it's understandable to want to find the right candidate with the right experience and the right fit, you have to imagine that there is a point that is reached where things are just entirely overcooked. And this long process makes things exceptionally hard on candidates who are between jobs and desperate to escape the uncertainty.
