Bad Interview experience
Around 10 days ago, I was shortlisted for a Senior Talent Acquisition position. The interview process started smoothly with a virtual interview being scheduled on short notice. Both rounds went well, and the feedback was positive. I was even told that I could expect an offer soon.
However, after submitting my documents, I was asked for my relieving letter and last 3 months' payslips. I explained from the beginning that, due to financial issues at my current organization, I had not received my salary for the past 2-3 months. This was communicated during my interviews, and I provided all other required documents including my relieving letter.
Despite this, the offer was ultimately withdrawn due to the lack of recent payslips, which had already been discussed earlier in the process.
This situation has left me reflecting on the importance of transparent communication during the hiring process, both from the candidate's and employer's side.

Yar, I believe the employer's decision to withdraw the offer due to the lack of recent payslips was justified. While it's unfortunate that the candidate faced financial difficulties, the company has a responsibility to ensure the financial stability of its employees. It's reasonable for them to require proof of income to assess the candidate's suitability for the role.

It's unfortunate the offer was canceled. They shouldn't have wasted your time when you mentioned you didn't have salary slips at the start

I feel at this situation it's no one fault as the company guidelines are important too . Also not every company is so stricted to these norms , have you tried anywhere else ?
