After 6 interviews with Viasat, I felt positive about the role. The last communication I received, “we have positive feedback and would like to move forward” Last communication from hiring manager “I look forward working with you” We started to negotiate salary and benefits. Then Christmas holiday came around. I emailed for an update in January. "We appreciate your patience through this long process. At this time, we have made the decision to go with another candidate for the role."
