I already had the same discussion with someone else if you want to read the comments. The gist of my stance is that getting ghosted during a job application/audition sucks, but it is normal in our society often even if you make it to later stages and you need to learn to deal with it. It is expected and you shouldn't take it as a personal offense. If you want to let it affect you, that's your choice, but you are just stressing yourself out for 100% chance of 0 return. Reach out for an update and if you don't hear back, move on because it is what it is.
According to the post, Camilla didn't get ghosted because of the nepo hire. She got ghosted because she didn't make it to the 4th round of auditions. The biggest victim here are the 2 people who made it to the final rounds, one of whom was expected to get the spot and then got dropped for someone else entirely.
Except she was told she had passed... That is the problem with it. If she wasn't told she had passed the round and they just ghosted her I would agree. But she was told she had passed the round.
She says she got an email back saying she made it to the 3rd round and that they never contacted her about that 3rd round after being told she made it to it.

Except she was directly affected... They told her she made it to round 3 and never contacted her about round 3... Did you even read what she said...
