# Cleared the Final Round. Rejected a Month Later.

**[TRUE STORY]** — by Software engineer · via r/developersIndia · viral

A candidate for a Custom Software Engineer role at Accenture cleared every round, called the inquiry helpline, waited ninety minutes on hold, and was told they had passed. One month later, an email arrived: the company was "no longer recruiting" for the position due to "recent developments." Other candidates in the thread reported the same experience — one had completed final interviews three times over seven months before receiving the identical rejection.
