Max, the recruiter, was a no show. (Based on other reviews, this guy seems to be the weak link in the hiring chain.) When I complained he called up, claimed to have had some urgent conflict (with a late lunch, I suspect) and tried to make me the bad guy for not being "flexible." This is just the sort of thing that happens at fast paced companies, don't you know. I allowed him to reschedule. The second conversation started with questions usually asked of one's friends at the local bar and went downhill from there.
