Senior Software Engineer Interview Experience - San Francisco, California
Process
I applied on LinkedIn and scheduled an interview.
The interviewer cancelled 10 minutes before the scheduled time.
I reached out and rescheduled. The interviewer rejected the invite and bailed on the interview a second time.
I reached out for follow-up or feedback and haven't received any yet.
This is a pretty pathetic way to engage prospective employees. If Zoom was moving in a different direction or had filled the position, just say that.
Don't ignore. Be better.
