The interview was scheduled by an external recruiter who, it seems, failed to coordinate properly with the actual interviewer. This lack of communication led to a significant misalignment in expectations. As a result, I ended up going all the way to their office for a meeting that was either unnecessary or poorly planned, ultimately wasting my time and causing unnecessary frustration. Such experiences highlight the importance of clear coordination between recruiters and hiring teams to ensure a respectful and efficient process for candidates.
