I teach my candidates R-STAR. Start with the "result" to bait the hook, and peak their interest..

It can be as simple as something like this:

"Oh sure, I can speak to that... Let me tell you about a time I saved my client $1,000,000 in 3 months. The situation was..."

Have 5 to 10 of those in your back pocket that you can mold to any of their behavioral interview question setups, and you will be set for life on behavioral interviews.

Hi fishes, my friend recently had a bitter experience with Dish Network. So her profile was shortlisted and they asked few questions over email. It did take good 2hrs to answer and she replied back. HM said we are good to go for interview and sent an invite. On the day of interview nobody turned up, neither they gave an update later. She did follow up for a couple of days but no response. Is there any reason why this happens ? Me being in HR field felt this to be a little unprofessional.
