A recruiter called me and we set up an interview. The recruiter failed to attend (without notice) and I offered to re-schedule the interview. The recruiter accepted. When the day of the interview arrived I was stood up again and the recruiter never answered my messages again.

Can't register any questions as I was never given a chance.
