I was invited to interview following my application and was asked to share my availability for that week, which I responded to the same day. After hearing nothing for seven days, I eventually received an apology and a new interview time was arranged another week later.
Unfortunately, five minutes before the scheduled meeting, the interview was cancelled without any email, phone call or explanation. I followed up two days later to understand what had happened and did not receive a response.
Disappointing experience overall. Having worked in similar roles across growing start-ups, I also see the interview process as an opportunity to assess a companyâs communication, organisation and respect for candidatesâ time. In this case, the experience suggested it may not have been the right fit after all.
