I had a first stage interview with the hiring manager in which we discussed my experience and I learned more about the role. I learned a few days later that I had got through to the second and final stage, set for a week's time. On the morning of the second interview I recieved a cancellation saying that they had filled the role. Overall, an ambivalent experience. Efficient communication, I appreciate they did not waste my time, aside from that spent preparing for the interview, but disappointed I did not even get a chance.
