^^^ so I am freaking TF out. She gives me the number of the person I'm supposed to interview with and then doesn't even return my calls again, like ever.
So I call the manager I am supposed to interview with, and he's like sure come on out. We understand.
I drive another hour+ to get there for a 15 minute interview in which the manager is on the phone for 10 of those minutes taking care of personal affairs.
I worked in a field with few minority candidates, I'm not naïve about what happened.
The Brian Flores sham interview isn't uncommon and is part of the reason why it's hard to shake imposter syndrome.
I had a similar issue a few years back. I got an interview with a tech company a few years back. Interview was at their offices in a nearby city about 45 minutes away. I show up, and the workers are like that manager works in a different city an hour away.
I call the recruiter panicking and she's like oh crap, I told you the wrong city.
It's 5 minutes until my interview...
Ahahahahahahahahahahaha
