Already 5min late. Should I cancel the interview and throw the resume on the trash? Or do I wait for them to show up and throw it in the trash in front of them?

Don't hold it against them, they just now realized they be going to do a interview with a potential serial killer.

Hilarious to think Ike could tell this person it wasnt his decision to hire them. It was decided by the Board.

Poor person would leave the interview thinking it was some big corporate decision when in fact it was a thread of miscreants.

Being late is at the top of my list of pet peeves.

They told me to pass on this candidate. I said maybe theres a reason, like their cat had cramped hips for sexual reasons. They didnt care. Fucking corporate.

I tossed a resume in the trash for a guy who showed up to an interview wearing a backwards baseball cap and cancelled the interview two weeks ago.

It subconsciously says that the late person places no value on the other person's time

depends on what kind of position and how qualified they appear to be otherwise. i dunno about other industries, but we've been trying to hire folks for going on 2 months, interviewing candidate after candidate. After a couple dozen 2nd round interviews--which means there were at least that many 1st rounders that didn't make the cut for the technical mumbo-jumbo, solve algorithms while 4 people with your future in their hands stare back at you via zoom--we've only hired one guy who graduated with honors from UofI engineering (yes, asian, of course--but non-chiner asian, duh).

it's a tight labor market for employers looking to hire qualified folks. 5 minutes doesn't seem like the worst thing if otherwise qualified.

It's probably generous to say subconsciously. Few things piss me off more.

It blatantly says you have no respect
