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?

This is tough. On one hand I want to say swallow your pride. But on the other I would be alarmed and would drop out.

Only stay if it is a dream job level gig.

That’s why I’m struggling. I really want this job.

When a person or company shows you who they are , believe them. And 50% more seems too good to be true. Any chance this is a scam?

What I would do is reschedule but do it on your terms. For example, if they say "How about Monday at 9am?" Respond with, "That's not a good time for me, but I have availability on Wednesday at 4" something like that

I had a company reschedule 3 times, and by the 4th reschedule I missed the email for it and they assumed I did not want it and hired someone else. If I wasn’t still hoping they’d hire me I would curse that whole team out.

Ugh, that is terrible :/. I’m sorry you had to go thru that.
