Extremely Unprofessional. They contacted me and I was gracious enough to talk to them for a half hour and schedule a follow up via skype before they were even able to secure me an interview. After doing so they canceled on me a half hour before the interview that I had already set aside specifically for them.
Later I found out they already had another candidate they were sending over before me. So the interview they wanted me to do with them before I interviewed with the client could have been a waste of time which specifically why I only wanted to meet with them over Skype as opposed to driving down to talk with them about a possibly existent position.
I talked with them and the said they would follow up with me if they candidate they sent over didn't get the position. Well, big surprise they didn't follow up. Second big surprise, the candidate they sent didn't get the position. So not only did they waste my time, they wasted theirs and wasted an opportunity.
If you are a potential employee ask yourselves if they value you? If you're a client ask yourselves are you getting the potential interviewees you should be or are they shooting themselves in the foot?
