I applied online. I interviewed at Fastly (San Francisco, CA) in Jan 2021
Interview
I was contacted by a recruiter named Kaitlyn Reno after I applied for a position through their website. She asked me for my availability and I provided using her Calendly link. She went MIA again and never confirmed the interview.
She reached out to me a few days later and asked me to provide new time slots and I did. She confirmed the interview. After a few minutes, I got an update that the interview was moved by one more day. I am with that.
Ok, it's the interview day and I was waiting for the call. She did not call me. What the hell?
I sent a couple of emails giving a benefit of the doubt that maybe she forgot or missed it or sick. Nopes, I never heard from her again.
After a month, I get a generic rejection email from Fastly.
Horrifying experience. They do not value a person's time and are completely unprofessional. Stay away from Fastly, there are a lot of other better companies and recruiters out there.

Question 1
How to deal with an interviewer who schedules the interview but never calls you?
Applied online. The recruiter reached out to me via email asking for available times. On the day of the interview I logged in and waited for 15 minutes and no show from the recruiter. I sent her an email right after and I receive a out of office reply. She reached out to me and apologized and we scheduled a second round and She was still 7 minutes late to the second interview.
