Infuriation: inept scheduling, inability to communicate professionally
Scott is another allegedly senior recruiter who is simply unable to communicate professionally. This really happened:
Day 1: In response to online submission, Scott emailed the applicant, asking for dates and times of interview availability since he'd "very much" like to speak to the applicant.
Day 1: One hour after Scott's request, the applicant emailed times and dates of availability. No response.
Day 2: The applicant emailed Scott with more times and dates of availability. No response.
Day 3: The applicant called Scott, left a courteous, succinct voice message with times and dates of availability. No response.
Day 4: Via email, Scott said that he would be unavailable for the scheduled time (?), asked if he could speak to the applicant at the "same time tomorrow."
Since you're unable to communicate professionally, and since you can't even keep track of appointments that you apparently set for other applicants, Scott, you're in the Recruiter Hall of Shame.
Kronos is a good company, but when I had a very similar experience trying to get scheduled to talk to the real decision-makers, this loser just made it harder. Nobody supervises dumbasses like this, that's the problem, and then you can't bring it up in the interview because you'll never get the job.
