Interview / Case study follow up

So surely I’ve been rejected bc I haven’t heard in weeks. I sent an email twice bc I have another offer to attend to and the investment professional who interviewed / did the case just ghosted.

WTF is this. What kind of ppl ghost after y put hours into a case study.

Unfortunately, it seems common in the industry. I've done cases where I've had the right call (and thought it was a good presentation, too), yet I got 0 feedback (and ultimately a rejection).. a recent one from a fund mentioned on here recently gave me the dumbest of reasons for rejection after my case too... I can count on my hands the number of times I've gotten any useful feedback. I'd move on and accept the other offer.
