I mean the orgs doing the hiring. Folks are all over the board and generally don't do a great job of learning from one another. So the process is not great in the end. If companies worked together to create better processes, the world would be a better place.

Thanks for clarifying and I completely agree! I wonder if the lack of business to business process transparency is mutually agreed upon and intentionally upheld. Keeping a certain level of ambiguity definitely gives companies more power over interviewees during the hiring process. It's also possible that companies are so caught up in this "war for talent" that they don't see the benefits of being transparent, especially when they could potentially lose engineers to direct competition that they're engaging in process improvement with.
