Job Seekers Share Challenges with Interview Scheduling and Salary Negotiations

One tech professional claimed a company delayed salary discussions until after interviews, then offered less than his current pay citing company stability. Another candidate was rejected after requesting to reschedule a final interview given only 30 minutes' notice, with the founder emphasizing prioritizing the company. Both cases sparked online debates about transparency, fairness, and workplace expectations during recruitment.
