I had recently went through an interview with sap labs. My first and 2nd round done. After manegerial round which is the 3rd round then HR became silent and gave no update. I tried to connect with the HR for 3 weeks and then one rejection email came which said i am rejected. I want to just express that HR should be more diligent in replying to emails and if they are rejecting some candidate then they should update them with the proper reason not by a system generated email.
