Got a call from the HR person requesting an in-person interview. I prepared the night before and felt like the interview went great. They pretty much told me the job was mine and complimented me throughout. Red flag #1: I asked about the hiring timeline, and they gave no clear answer — just said they wanted someone to start "as soon as possible." Now it’s been 3 weeks. No update. I sent two follow-up emails, called twice, even left a voicemail. Crickets. Wasted my time showing up in person for a job they made it seem I had in the bag. And no — I don’t buy the excuse that “they have so many candidates.” You didn’t interview 100 people. You interviewed maybe 10. Be real. At the very least, send a rejection email. This is just disrespectful.
