I had 5 rounds of interviews with a company last year. After the last round, HR said they got good feedback from everyone but they are cancelling that role because they dont have the funds. Thats 5 hours of time wasted on their side but, I lost so much more time because I had to do research for interviews. You can imagine how I felt after hearing that.
I'd probably just carpet-bomb their office for that.
I remember hearing google crediting every interview as 2-3 hours time per interviewer once to account for prep, scorecard filling, and discussions. They lost two days work on you for nothing.
