Accenture — Candidature suddenly closed after clearing all the rounds

My candidate id is C9120650.
I received a call to get interviewed at Accenture on 1st March 2021. It was communicated by HR that After successful completion of digital interview (online test) 2 more interviews would be conducted.

I successfully cleared the digital interview after which I received confirmation mail and call from the HR that my 1st round has been cleared and 2nd round of interview has been scheduled.

I successfully cleared the technical round followed by managerial round on 3rd March 2021. After clearing all the interview rounds I received a confirmation mail and call from the HR stating that I need to upload the documents as the next step of the hiring process.
I even received one mail stating that they are accepting my candidature.
After uploading the documents suddenly I got a pop error message on the portal that my candidature is closed .
I didn’t receive any communication or mail regarding my candidature closure neither from HR nor from Accenture team.
I don’t understand what went wrong as I successfully cleared all the rounds and even CTC discussion was carried out with the HR.

This is very disheartening that big organisations like Accenture have loopholes in their recruitment process and the candidate has to face the repercussions of the mistakes done by their hiring team.
It is totally wastage of time and energy of the candidate who took the effort to clear all the rounds and still offer letter was rolled out neither any communication happened.

Please provide the resolution on the same.

Hi.. Similar issue happened for me as well. Did you get any response?
Hi,
My candidate id is C9115301.
On 17th of June, 2021, I gave my technical Interview and I cleared it successfully and on the same day I got an email stating that you have been moved to the HR round. And the next day I got a call from one of the HR and asked me all my details like Notice Period, Salary Expectation and Education Background etc and when I asked what are the next steps, I have been told that I will get a call from HR (Ujna) who coordinated my profile.

On the 24th of June in the afternoon,
I checked in the Accenture Recruitment portal, my status was as below.

"We regret to inform you that your credentials have not met our selection or verification criteria. We have closed your application and will not be going forward with your candidature."

May I know what went wrong? I have been trying to reach out the HRs but no one is responding.

Please provide the resolution on the same.

Did you receive any response from Accenture
Hi All,

Same issue happened with me as well where After clearing technical round and submitting all the relevant docs, With in 2 hrs they have mentioned like candidature is closed without any reason. Which is not acceptable with this Reputed organization in INdia.
Forget about it and move on
Hi, this is my CID C7994063. I gave my interview on 26th July. After the interview I got an email stating that your interview is cleared and you are required to submit the EAF form and upload the supporting documents. When I logged into the Accenture carrier portal, I was able to submit the EAF form however, the upload link was not available for me. And, the status was changed to Candidature is closed. Right away I reched out to the HR. They told it seems to be a technical glitch and I need to connect with the support team and sort this out. On contacting support team, they told me they cannot help with this and I need to sort this out with HR. Since that day I am contacting HR on daily basis, which is of no help as they keep saying they will check and get back. After two weeks, finally on 9th August they told you are rejected. On questioning on what basis this decision was taken, they cut my call. The HR name was Madhu. What kind of behaviour is this. To me this seems to be a highly unprofessional behaviour. Specially we don't expect this from a firm like Accenture. After wasting candidate's time, they make them run behind them.

Kindly help me any one knows the reason.

Hi

Candidate ID - C10195051

I had given my technical interview on 11th of October and after clearing that I gave HR interview on the same day and also my CTC was finalized. Then they have contacted me for more than 2 weeks even after I tried multiple follow up mails . And today i saw in the portal that my candidature has been cancelled. This is literally pissing me off. This is unbelievable that such a big company like Accenture is doing such cheap tactics. It literally feels like I have wasted my time and energy and got such response from them.

CID: C10214057 which suddenly closed even though I have cleared the two-level interview. I reached out to HR about this. They informed me positions were on hold in that location but I could see the multiple openings in the same location on Linked-in. I've checked with HR if possible to consider my application for the same job role.

She asked to apply for a fresh application but my application got frozen for up to 6 months.
CID:C10764355 :i successfully clear the all rounds and i received confirmation mail and call from hr that you are clear all rounds and after uploading the documents suddenly i got pop error message on the portal that my candidature is closed don't receive any communication or mail regarding my candidature closer neither hr not from Accenture team. I don't understand what we wrong as i successfully cleared all rounds. This is very dishearten that big organisations like Accenture...it is totally wastage of time and energy of the candidate who look the effort to clear all the rounds..
