What do you think of a company where you’re about to have a second interview and they just no show for the Zoom meeting? This is after I met with the CCO and a Partner during the first meeting. Second meeting was supposed to be with Founder and President. But he no-showed. Getting very disorganized and unstructured vibes, but I need a job :/

Yikes. Reach back out to whoever was supposed to organize the interview, could be something happened or the recruiter messed up. Either way, find out why, and then proceed.

Could be technical. Could be accidental. Or, could be the way things are there. It’s best to never take just ANY job. Why not ask, in a genuine, calm, confident way, what happened? Worst case, you’ll learn more about them. Best case, they admit to being human and owe you one.

If you need a job you need a job. Just remember, the way companies do one thing is the way they do everything.

Depends on how bad you need the job. Either way you must accept it shows a huge lack of respect and probably is a reflection on the relationship between upper management and other positions.

Could be a lot of things. Someone that high up probably has an assistant handling their schedule so it could simply have been an error on their part or misprioritized double bookings.
Just shoot them a note and say you thought there was time set up to discuss and see when they’ll be free to reschedule.

It’s usually a bad sign. But give them a pass if they quickly apologize and reschedule.

If it happens a 2nd time, I would honestly withdraw my candidacy.

Interviewed for 2 jobs I am highly interested in. One offered the job already, but the other one hasn’t made a decision yet but should this week. I have until tomorrow to accept the offer but would like to work for the other company if the compensation package is better. Any advice? I don’t want to accept and then have to cancel, but there’s no guarantee the other job will hire me either. 😩
