I’m so frustrated. I spent hours prepping for an interview I had scheduled on Friday, but when I got there, the vibe was off immediately. We were supposed to talk for about an hour, but 10 minutes into it, the interviewer just stood up and walked me out. I feel like my time was totally wasted. What are you even supposed to say when they cut it that short?

That's a weird experience. I'm also surprised that anyone would schedule an interview right after new years. Did they give any indication that it wasn't going well? Were you qualified? I don't think there is anything you need to say in a situation like that. Thank them for their time and head home.

That’s sad you had to go through all of that. I would say that person did you a favor . Why would you want to work at a place like that when you are treated that way? Also, I don’t get why someone would schedule an interview the day after a holiday. Best of luck! Something better will turn up.

Aye, that sucks, but like for me I had a recruiter send me her Google sheet with all 12 of the final applicants & their personal information (mine included and the notes) instead if the assessment is needed to complete. Good news is they didnt select me, even though this is the first time I am mentioning the slip up.

Wow! what a breach. Yes you dodged a bullet!
