Penguin Random House interview questions

They asked a few questions I has already answered twice in the application, which I though was fine because we went through them quite quickly. But then they asked if I would need visa sponsorship in the future, to which I replied I would. They automatically told me that this company would not ever be able to hire me unless my status changed. I understand the position but I had already answered this question twice before the interview and it just made me feel like they did not even read my application all the way through before contacting me.

I have been in three consecutive interview processes in the last 6 months at PRH for Publicity Assistant roles. 2 out of the 3 roles had a writing diagnostics portion/ sample tasks day in the final stage (I'm assuming for the final top two candidates since I was notified I was for the first two jobs), there can be LONG waiting times which is unfortunately very frustrating but I think could depend on who the HR recruiter is for the role, it just so happened I had the same recruiter/ HR manager for all three roles.
