Principal Engineer Interview Experience - Australia
September 10, 2025
Negative ExperienceNo Offer
Process
This recruiter was unprofessional and unreliable. They did not show up for the scheduled interview twice and gave no explanation.
It was disappointing and showed poor communication. Such repeated no-shows and lack of follow-up reflect poorly on the recruiter's reliability and respect for candidates' time.
