They took me in and asked fair questions, and were able to look past my lack of college degree and to the experience and passion I'd bring to the job.

Had two preliminary interviews, one with a recruiter and another with a hiring manager. Both were very nice and pleasant experiences and the questions asked felt very in line with the role I applied for. I was told I would be contacted again for a third follow up interview shortly, Then, I received a notice that the hiring manager had been transferred out of the department I applied for and a new one had been brought in, and I was informed secondhand through my first contact that said new manager had no desire to hire me nor even give me a preliminary interview themselves. It felt very unprofessional and like a slap in the face, not to mention a waste of time for everyone else involved.
