A recruiter reached out to me and asked to schedule a phone call that same week. I provided several availabilities and received no reply. He later reached out after the week had finished, stating he never saw the message (though the platform we were messaging on showed a read receipt). I then gave him my availabilities for the next week, and we scheduled a call.

Come time for our chat, he never called. Later, he messaged to say he couldn't make the call due to a flight. We rescheduled again, talked a bit, and he said he would send me a coding challenge the next day. This coding challenge never came.

At this point, I decided this was not a good look for the company and did not bother pursuing this job any further. I totally understand when situations arise, but encountering hiccups at every step feels like too much to be a coincidence.

At the end of the day, no hard feelings. I know, however, that many of us are busy juggling our current jobs or schooling with job hunting, and I want to give people a heads-up that might save them a lot of time.

Tell me about yourself.
