A candidate on r/developersIndia was told the company wanted an 'immediate joiner' — someone who could start within two weeks. He had a 60-day notice period but explained it was negotiable. The recruiter agreed and scheduled an interview for the next day. He took leave from his current job. The interviewer never showed. No email, no update — dead silence. The interview was rescheduled. Same thing happened again. Nearly a month passed. Then the same HR contacted him again, asking if he could still join within two weeks.
