Recruiter reached out to me a day after I applied and set up an initial HR screen for the following week. The night before the meeting, I got a cancellation notice saying “ We re-reviewed your application ahead of the Recruiter Screen, and unfortunately we will not be moving forward with you at this time.”
In all my 20+ years in the industry, I’ve never had this happen, nor would I do this to a candidate as a hiring manager (which I’ve done plenty of).
Emailed the recruiter to ask for clarification but have not heard back.
