Job offer has been rescinded after reference checks (which were glowing) because they didnât feel one of my skillsets in strong enough - never mind that they didnât even advertise for it and it was only lightly touched on in the interview process. Honestly feel relieved, albeit a little bit angry. Definitely got bullet dodged vibes.

I had that where a place asked for references then said they went with someone else with more industry experience. And I was just thinking âyou knew that already, you have both our resumes.â
There is never any consideration on how much the interview process can be a waste of time for the candidate

Right?! Not to mention, if they wanted that skillset so bad, maybe put that on the ad?!

Who does that? Very sloppy, sounds like you dodged a bullet.

Absolutely dodged a bullet tbh. Had some unsure vibes to start with but was willing to take the chance because I need to make some changes!
