Bummed out that I got an interview at a big 4 through HireVue virtual interviews an i sat ther with a message “you are waiting for the interviewer” for 10 minutes then she calls me and asks if I was in the call because she was waiting for me. She seemed a little ina rush the whole call. At least I thought maybe she was busy and was late so she used it as an excuse. But I didn’t get a follow up interview now and wondering if it was a tech issue or something with how the interview was set up

If she seemed in a rush, without mentioning to reschedule, then it’s unlikely you’re in, just write it off and move on. I had two interviewers, one running late and the other with technical difficulties, both stayed a little over on the original interviews and also told the HR coordinators to schedule another calls. Making it a total of 4 interviews with 2 people, but at least they were interested.

Hey all! I went through the interviewing process with a company and we had a verbal agreement on X amount of salary per year. They liked me and extended an offer but the offer was for $15K less than what we agreed bc that’s what HR approved for. I was desperate so I took it. Accepting this offer meant that I had to relocate to the other side of the country. Omw that was 2500 miles, I received a call that they rescinded the offer. Is there anything legal that I can do to sue them?
