Plume scheduled a video interview with me, and I logged on at the agreed time ready to go. No one from their team joined. I waited 15 minutes, then sent a professional follow-up giving them the benefit of the doubt. The recruiter responded claiming she had sent an email that morning about a cancellation — an email I never received — and explained that the hiring manager only wants candidates in PST or Mountain time zones. A timezone requirement that basic should be screened before scheduling interviews, not discovered after a candidate has already shown up and waited. Candidates deserve basic respect for their time. This experience showed none.
