Disappointed with the Candidate Experience at Accenture

I recently interviewed at Accenture for a Security Architect role. I cleared two rounds of technical interviews and was later told by the HR (verbally) that I was selected and that my offer letter would be released soon. Based on that confirmation, I submitted all required documents and waited patiently for nearly a month. Despite following up multiple times, there was no proper communication or update. My application status remained “Active” on the portal the entire time. Eventually, I received a rejection email with no explanation, feedback, or context, despite being verbally told that I was selected. it’s disappointing when a candidate is given verbal assurance and kept waiting without clarity. I expected more transparent from a company of Accenture’s reputation. If anyone from Accenture here could help me understand what might have happened or possibly refer me for any similar openings in the Security Architect / Data Encryption/ key management, I’d be genuinely grateful.
