    yeah, it’s absolutely madness that some companies expect people to go through 3 to 6 rounds to receive a “we’ll let you know”

      I just reject those companies. And i let them know. Politely but still let them know.

      Its worked out well last couple of years.

        Same, I’ve started just stating I have a maximum of 3 interviews I do before I auto-reject the offer.

        This has had interesting results.

          I’d like to know more about the interesting results you’ve gotten if you don’t mind sharing.

            Getting a later special meeting request with the ceo, at one company, because he wanted feedback on their interview process itself. He then offered me a different job and I had to decline cuz I already accepted another (this was a few weeks after the initial decline I gave)

            In another case they just fast tracked me and I ended up declining the job anyways (didn’t like the job)

            I’m full time employed but I still do occasiobal interviews to keep feelers out for how the market is. But I typically decline most offers cuz they’re not good enough to get me to actively quit my current job.
