Actually it is in your advantage . Next time the partner will feel guilty and more positive . It happens. People are busy . Personal . Clients . 100s interviews . They will reschedule

Wait at least 30

Imagine if this happens during an interview how often it'll happen if you take the job. Because the below is almost every week from firms that show up on time for interviews, at least....

Partner/MD: "This is super important and priority number 1. We need to have a team call at 8pm tonight (because my calendar is full doing other things like golf and trying to fill my pipeline even further), to fix this. I have the solution (but can't type in an email to you) and will tell you at 8pm (in a loud, with hardly any connection, location) "

8:00 everyone is on, but partner

8:15pm ... SM/Director solutioning and trying to read P's mind (because SM/D has called, texted, and emailed P with ideas to get back on track, but P hasn't responded)

8:45pm .... About to wrap up when P sends teams message. "Hey team, hockey game went into overtime, I will join in 30 mins. Please grab some dinner and I'll meet you online soon"

9:15pm ....everyone has joined, but P

9:45pm .... P joins from a loud spot with intermittent connectivity to say, "Okay where are you guys at?"

Or

Just doesn't join at all....

Seven senior consultants arrive in a sack
Eight associates sneak in the back
