On the flip side - doesn't this kind of tell you the type of employer they are or potentially would be? If they don't have the courteousy to excuse themselves for any inconvenience caused, don't you think this must filter down to the way they handle their employer / employee relations? And what about their clients? Is this a reputable company in the eyes of some of their clients?

Job interviews are a 2 way street too. You've done the respectful and polite thing by being both flexible and ON TIME for your interviews. Just because they're nice enough (or so they think) to let you be interviewed, does that give them the right to treat you like crap? Def not.

Give it some thought Healer, it could be a sign that some other better position is coming your way. Best of Luck!

I agree that it's rude, but there's no point in bringing it up if you really want the job. Also, I agree on the type of employer...only saying because for the job I'm in now, my interview got rescheduled (though I wasnt employed elsewhere at the time) and it definitely didn't start on timeŽat all either. And now I know it's because my boss is only worried about his own schedule and no-one else's, though he expects to me arrive on time everymorning even though I often stay after hours because he's left things to the last minute. But it's up to you...if the job is worth it and also you see that there is room for dynamic development within your position and also room to go up the career ladder, then go for it. Every job has it's problems.

To be our soul and gesture it abroad,
Our hearts are incommunicable still.

The abyss from soul to soul cannot be bridged
By any skill of thought or trick of seeming.
Unto our very selves we are abridged
When we would utter to our thought our being.
We are our dreams of ourselves, souls by gleams,
And each to each other dreams of others' dreams.
