Received the assessment and cleared it then later got an email for next round and request to schedule it. I spoke with the recruiter and try to schedule it though they said they will update if there is availability and confirm soon. I kept on reaching out but got ghosted and one day they tell me that the position is cancelled and can not schedule it.
