Recruiter reached out to me via Linkedin, unsolicited. We had a bit of an email conversation where she urged me to apply for a position online in the Houston office and scheduled a phone interview for a few days away. I applied online and awaited the call from the recruiter at the appointed time. It never came. After a 15+ minute wait, I shot her a quick email, to which her response was "You received a notice regarding the cancellation of the role, 2 days ago." No, actually, I did not. There was no automated email, and, since we had been having a direct email conversation, a cancellation of an appointed interview should have been handled via personal, direct email. The recruiter completely wasted my time by urging me to apply for a position that was closed a day later and just blew off a scheduled appointment. Pretty poor recruitment policies.
