This is an unacceptable interviewing posture. As a Bar Raiser (or whatever your equivalent is) with authority over interview standards and interviewer eligibility, I’d pull you from loops for retraining. Repeat it, and you’re removed from interviewing.

Ha. Spoken like a faang employee

Training for interviewing? Nah let’s throw you in there and vibe it out

I seriously doubt you have any say in hiring anywhere. Nobody actually hiring would respond like this.

..and retraining? Lol

Candidates that are a no show after many interviews should definitely be blacklisted for a set amount of time.

The USPS, for instance, will blacklist you for 5 years for this behavior.
