I arrived 10 minutes early to a job interview yesterday, but the interviewer had me wait 45 minutes before he came and got me for the interview. Pretty rude, right? I almost walked out. How long would you sit there and wait past the interview starting time?

I stayed in a Zoom interview for about 30 minutes before I left. In person? I’d be more tempted to stay if I had any kind of communication during that waiting period, some kind of apology, too. Without out, it would leave a very bad taste.

did he say why the long wait/apologize? sometimes things come up that have to be dealt with asap. i hope he wasn't taking lunch while you waited!

Did they explain why they were late or just brushed it off? Does not leave a good impression unless there was an urgent situation that happened etc.

I’m not ready to leave my current role but I have no idea what to consider as a reasonable salary. I’ve been licensed a year and this is my first law-related job so I’m a complete newbie.
