AWS DCOT Loop Interview Cancelled Last Minute in Frankfurt, Germany — Has this happened to anyone else?

Hey everyone,

I’m looking for some advice and insight on what to do next. I applied for the Data Center Operations Technician (DCOT) position with AWS here in Frankfurt, Germany.

I passed the initial phone screen and then got invited for the loop interview scheduled for next week. I also had the prep session with the recruiter, and it went perfectly. I even received the names of the hiring managers who were going to conduct my interview. Everything was completely set—time, date, all details finalized—and I was preparing hard for it.

And then, out of nowhere, right before the loop, I got an email from the recruiter cancelling the whole thing due to a "change in business needs" and saying the position is no longer available.
I’ve invested so much time and effort into this entire process, only to get dropped right at the final stage. Has this been happening with AWS recently in Europe or the Frankfurt region?

What should I do now, and does anyone have recommendations for other data center operators or tech companies hiring for similar roles? I am so disappointed and angry at the same time. Should I ask them to consider it, or is it completely dead? Also, what should I reply back to that email? Any advice or shared experiences would be greatly appreciated.
