Currently stuck in the waiting room of a Google Meets video call for a final interview. Interview was supposed to start 15 min ago. How much longer should I wait before giving up and sending an email to the recruiter that the person didn’t show up?

This is the right call. I’ve had this happen and the recruiter was able to track down the reason for the delay.

Follow up:

Recruiter called me after about 20 min of not being on the call and asked if I was still planning on joining since the interviewer was waiting. I told her I was stuck in the waiting area presuming that it was on the interviewer to let me into the room. She told me that she would check with the other admin to see where the miscommunication happened and would follow up with me (perhaps we got two separate links).

It’s been an hour now and still no follow up. Am I overthinking this in that it would have been an easy solution to just immediately create a new room/link and send it to the both of us? Do I reach back out asking if the interviewer could still make time for me today or just sit tight until I hear back? I want this position so I don’t want it to slip away because of something silly like this technical miscommunication.

You can let them know you can still interview today, tell them your availability for today & Monday & that hopefully this can be easily resolved. & of course thank them for looking into the issue & for rescheduling due to technical issues.

Hi, been stuck in the contract analysis/review cycle. I have asked a few recruiters how to make a lateral move into in-house. They told me to focus on contract management, which I have been doing for the past year. Now that I have, are there any sites besides “jobscan” that I can use to make sure my resume fits the job descriptions? Does anybody know any recruiters that could help me, as well?

CFP study programs:

I'm a little confused on Danko - does he offer a self-study option for the coursework requirement? On his website it looks like each module has a 4-day virtual class which I wouldn't be able to attend due to working full time. Does this program also include self-study material, and the classes are just supplementary/optional? I was also looking at Dalton for self-study and Danko for test prep. Thoughts?

TIA

Hi Guyz,

I went through the entire recruitment process and got selected for IBM ISL. Now I am being told by the HR that they are unable to release offer as there is a hiring freeze.

Can any one please tell me if its correct or just an excuse not to give me offer. If its true, when will this freeze be removed?
