A recruiter contacted me about a position. I had not applied and I am not actively looking, but I thought it would be worth seeing what the market looks like, so I agreed to a time. The invite went out and I received several reminders in the days beforehand. At the scheduled time nobody joined the call. There was no notice in advance and no follow-up afterwards. Schedules change and things get missed, and I would have had no issue with a short email asking to reschedule. When a company initiates the contact, the least a person can expect is a message when plans change. My suggestion to the team is simply to give that the same respect they ask of others. Obviously, I set the interview difficulty to very easy.
