Hello amazing people, I am a MBA student and am graduating this June. I have over 8 years of workex in IT consulting and Interned as Tech consultant at a boutique consulting firm. I did not have a return offer and being international finding jobs have been very difficult. I want to land interviews but at this point I don't see any success. I am aiming for tech consulting, tech strategy related roles. Most of my apps have been rejected in 3-5 days. I am all ears to what should be done.

I had a job interview for a role that I really want. The hiring manager scheduled me for an interview and did not show up. Emailed me an hour later stating that he got super busy and couldn’t attend, and would like to reschedule. This is a major red flag, but I can’t help but feel that I am missing out since this role pays 50% over what I currently make. Should I let the recruiter know? What’s your take on this?
