I had a first round interview for a position applied through a recruiter, but got stood up. The company wants to reschedule, but I decided to turn it down and withdrew my application. How bad is it? Would that be burning the bridge? It is a pretty large company and I may want a poaition there in the future.

Why did they stand u up

They said it was a scheduling mistake.

Do you really want the job? Does it seem like it was truly a mistake? If the answer to both is yes, it may be worth to reschedule, especially if they seem interested and really wanting to correct their mistake. If you are really turned off by the company, don’t pursue further. If you just want interview practice, I wouldn’t push further.

I've already turned it down. Giving the economics nowadays, I figured it would be better to stay put. I just wonder if it would be a problem if I want to pursue a position there in future.

very Selective jobs( MF PE and BB IBs) kinda blow these numbers out of the water... but for the more attainable exits like MM IB and and corporate development... considering wlb and pay, is the grass much greener?
