Well this is new 🧐. You are not their employee yet. Ask them about agenda of that meeting. Is it some future employee session or specific to work you will be doing there.

A discussion with HR or hiring manager is ok but a business meeting sounds strange to me.

I had the weirdest dream. Criminals were put in a gated community under observation and they had to successfully fake their own death to get out. They were given too many drugs and alcohol.

My brain needs a rehab now. 🥺

Why do recruiters seen zone your messages on Linkedin after you ask them for an opportunity to work in their company?

Kis baat ka attitude hain bhai itna ? And it happens mostly in India.

Just say NO, Sorry your skills are not a match, don't ignore. You were also candidates once.

Worse they say We'll check or get back to you. But never come back. Luckily I got selected into a tier-1 company and their Recruiter ignored me once 😂. I am gonna personally meet that recruiter on Day1.
