Senior Data Engineer Interview Experience - Toronto, Canada
Process
After applying, the recruiter sent me an invitation for an introductory session. She didn't bother to show up.
I sent her two emails, and she did not reply to either of them.
I then received an email the following Monday stating they were in the last steps with other candidates and likely to make an offer. She didn't even bother to apologize for not showing up.
To be honest, this is not an excuse for wasting my time this way. She could have canceled the interview, even at the last minute.
Very disrespectful.
