Would you continue interviewing with a hiring manager who reschedules at the last minute? (less than 10 minutes to the interview)
Context- A recruiter reached out, resume shortlisted and interview scheduled 3 days in advance but still interviewer asks for rescheduling at the very last minute!
Think about it- You put efforts to manage time & ensure availability in the middle of the week but interviewer can’t even manage 30 minutes for an interview?
If the reason seems genuine, and he/she apologised and meant it, please forgive him/her.
Things happen sometimes.
No reason, no apology. More like “hi all, I’m busy, can we please reschedule?”
Should have at least addressed it to the candidate in my opinion
That is quite sad and inconsiderate
Let me tell you other side of this. Might not be exactly same.
I am hiring data scientists for my team, we don't have HR in the process(intentionaly). so I am the one who schedules the interview and then takes them.
2 days back, one production issue came up suddenly, I asked candidate if I can delay it by 20 mins or reschedule to his availability, things went pretty smoothly.
I understand that people take out time from their calendars but I tbink it is fine to understand situation certain times.
I’d totally understand if the interviewer works in a role that requires immediate attention to issues but not the case here.
It’s neither an engineering or operational role
Once I was interviewing with ClearTax, they rescheduled it 4 times. I decided not to continue the process and sent a regret mail to CT recruiter.
More than a couple of times is a red flag
Yes and relax just go with the flow
Hi guys, I am getting calls from recruiters starting last week and most of them are asking whether they can schedule an interview the next day? I am currently in a super hectic different tech stack project. I need 2-3 days or a week to ...
There I said it. It sucks.
The start is a joke - cause here's the plan - If you spend too much time on intros, and you wasting the so called "interview" time. And then you think I should save it for later, lets focus on the interview....
Recently, I underwent an interview process where the first round went smoothly, but things took an unexpected turn in the second round. The HR representative informed me that they hadn't even reviewed my CV yet, prompting a spontaneous "...
I am in the process of getting interviewed by Google. I had to reschedule it by a week due to some unforeseen circumstances. Will it leave a bad impression on the HRs if I go ahead and reschedule it again?
I had 1st round with hiring manager of a famous SAAS company. It was a 30 min call. He came 20 mins late. Was in hurry. Rejection mail came after a day.
