Five rounds of interviews no less

Can I get an Amen up in here for being fed up with employers that leave you hanging after they made you jump through soooo many hoops just to pull the offer last minute? After months of interviews (I applied back in January), case studies, presentations and in-person meetings (they flew me out) I get a call today from the hiring manager who's a buddy of mine. “The VP got cold feet and they won't be creating the job opening after all. It's sad because we already had a very good compensation package approved for you. Well maybe there will be another chance in three to six months, who knows…” Mama raised a courteous boy so I thanked them for the opportunity but after hanging up I am just exhausted.

After months of interviews (I applied back in January), case studies, presentations and in-person meetings (they flew me out) I get a call today from the hiring manager who's a buddy of mine.

Mama raised a courteous boy so I thanked them for the opportunity but after hanging up I am just exhausted. Of course I am at fault here for getting my hopes up after receiving glowing feedback from everyone I've talked to during the hiring process only to fail with the one person I didn't talk to.

Anybody else had this happen before? Sorry for my rant but I feel like this happens more often than not.
