Did I get rejected from an interview if the interviewer said “I have 2 more interviews and I will let you know by the end of the month if you got the position?”

I wouldn’t take that as a full blown rejection. If they are interviewing people they have to honor those interviews even if you are the best candidate for the position. They probably scheduled multiple interviews for this week. I don’t think that phrasing is reason to stress

i don’t think it’s a rejection, i’ve personally never been rejected after being told that. I take it as a other people have scheduled interviews with them and it would be rude for them to just cancel them

no, typically the policy will be to continue with all scheduled interviews before choosing, even if they have already interviewed a candidate that stands out strongly to them (source: i’ve been on the hiring team at my job for a few years) it was proper of her to let you know what to expect as far as timeline and next steps the next two candidates could be duds or could blow them away, who knows, but they will sit down and go over interviews and resumes to decide

some companies will, some won’t. i really hate it when they don’t, it feels unprofessional to me not to at least send out a canned “we have chosen to move forward with another candidate, thank you for your time” ema
