SailPoint Technologies interview questions

nine interviews with people from different functions. 45 minute time slots. Mostly around previous experience, no behavioral questions. Not clear whether interview team had coordinated beforehand. Also met with ceo and president.

I was first contacted by the Hiring Manager for the role. We had a nice, conversational interview which lasted about 30 minutes, and spoke mostly about my background and what the role entailed. There were no surprising questions -just the basics on why you like the company and why you want to do sales. Next, he sent me an assignment in which I had to pretend I was the MDR and leave a voicemail and email to a C-level executive of a financial company with the purpose of setting up a call to further explain SailPoint's product offering. Then, the next exercise was a role play call which required me to identify the financial company's problems in terms of IDM and relate them to how SailPoint could solve them. The final goal of the call was to set the C-level executive a meeting with a SailPoint Outside Sales Rep. After this call I further discussed with the hiring manager. He told me my strengths/weaknesses during the call and some constructive criticism which I found great. Once that was done, I was invited for an on-site interview. I first met with the Hiring Manager, in which we discussed further technicalities of the role. Then, I met with another manager. He asked me about my background and how it related to the role. What seemed a little weird is that he seemed in a rush throughout my interview, saying that he had a reason to leave early. He came in with a computer into the room and was staring at it the whole time so I didn't know if my answers were being listened to. Afterwards I spoke to other two team members. This last part was mostly about how the team worked together and what was expected of me. Overall everyone was very nice and the questions were on-point. But, here is the biggest surprise about this process: Not even 24 hours after my interview, I get an (automatic/no reply) email saying I didn't get the role. I was very surprised since I made it that far into a 4 week long process. But anyway, I sent a thank you note to the Hiring Manager since we talked throughout all those homework tasks and interviews. And then, I get an automatic reply saying that the Hiring Manager no longer works with the company. So, a manager who was recruiting me during 4 weeks all of a sudden no longer works there? If so, why was he the one recruiting? I find these events very weird.
