Has this ever happened to anyone? I had a recruiter backed out due to an emergency and it cost me to not be able to interview because they didn’t send the information out and schedule it. So, therefore it cost me to miss out on the job and to become on a waitlist. The guy said i would put on a waitlist and would be first in line to any available opening that he has. The job still says under consideration. So, i’m just confused and never seen or heard about this happening before.
