misinformation

Hello,

So I just received an email from a recruiter at HSBC saying that I made it to the second stage of the interview process for the Global Banking Group and he asked me to apply for a specific role (IB). He said in an email, once I did that application I would receive a test I would need to complete. However, I did the application and got a reply saying I was not being considered for the position. I just replied to the recruiter, telling him what happened. Is this normal? Anyone else have this happen to them? What was the outcome?

Thank you!!
