Hi all,
I had a video screening interview earlier last week, got an email back couple days later and this is what the email says ( referred to screenshot below).
I replied with a date and time which is today at 1:30pm- I still didn’t get a response. Needless to say I emailed them this morning to remind them.
What to make if this ?

Friend of mine was supposed to receive an offer (told verbally) from Deloitte and then just found out they are pausing on hiring the role. How common is that? Seems wildly unprofessional that none of the partners called and instead it was the recruiter conveying that news. At McKinsey, if that happened, the head of the practice or the office would personally make the phone call at the very least.

Hey all! I have an interview with

Is it the case here?

Is BBH racist? Just saw on LinkedIn they are importing another white British person to be their LA head of planning. Went on their website. Their leadership is devastatingly homogeneous. Has any BIPOC person here ever been interviewed for a leadership position at BBH in the US? Planning wise, I can't remember any BIPOC or any American being their head of planning anywhere. I might be wrong.
