The problem is that most recruiters see themselves as semi-gods. You can easily perceive the air of pride & arrogance all around them. This is not a test of patience but sheer irresponsibility.

In Nigeria, human dignity is never respected, especially towards Job seekers. It is inhuman to keep people waiting unnecessarily without a reason or an apology

Know this and know peace, we are what we are by the Grace of God.

Infact you are totally right at the bolded.

Ordinary Stupvd one new worker of one of our Subsidiaries i was trying to give a warm welcome and pleasantries. Would you believe the fool didn't reciprocate my good gesture. He was so full of himself and replied me rudely and arrogantly. This is not the first or second time i am experiencing this with different people. A lot of people are just Sadist in Nigeria.

The Idiot is just an ordinary employee oo not even an employer.

Some Nigerians are Demonic, Arrogant, Extremely Damaged.

True....most HR are actually overworked, especially those in big organisations were they oversee salary issues, onboarding and staff discipline as well. Some even are in charge of admin. People only know about the recruitment part.
Being overworked is not an excuse for not knowing how to manage time and schedule things properly. It will even help them do their job better if they schedule candidates properly. Some HR people just continue to do things the way they have been doing it over the years, without looking to see how they can improve their process.
Sometimes, a simple survey to all the job candidates after the interview can open their eyes to many things.

Lol. What were you doing there? Watching football, reading a book or what? Did they serve you lunch? Lol.
Did you call them while they were delaying?

I used exactly the same time banging my woman with my curved long ten inches dick.
It took me more than four hours to release my hot seeds deep inside her.

It's actually a tactic introduced by some companies to reduce the number of interested ones. They said leaving because you're tired of waiting means you don't have the ability to be patient with clients.

Except if it is all these 30k - 40k job. Try that with a senior Dev, he will leave your interview and your job for you.

No time to waste

You clearly don't know what you are talking about. A bank MD will be in Zoom waiting room for 3.30hours? Is he that jobless?

I once waited for a whole day at one fcmb branch back then. We were later told to go, that they've rescheduled the interviews.

That was also brutal, though different.

We don't value people's time in Nigeria. It's one of the reasons we're not progressing.
In a western country that won't happen without many apologies or asking you to select another time for rescheduling!
Recruiters here just behave anyhow, very unprofessional.

It was online interview
Re: Waiting in The Waiting Room For 3:30mins by jclassiq(m): 6:49pm On Apr 28, 2023
It's being wicked and insensitive to the sufferings of other people.

During a certain job interview for a supervisorial position in an upscale restaurant in Abuja, we were blatantly ignored for several hours..... From 8am to around 5pm. Jesus!

We waited and waited until everyone's eyes were glazing over from hunger, tiredness and boredom.

We needed a job so we couldn't do anything.

Some people left. We stayed.

The interview started around 5.30pm.

I was busy at home around 11pm same day when the message came in: "Resume training tomorrow".

I was happy. A worthy consolation.

that's a very dumb test. job seekers too have a life of their own, you can't just be wasting someone's time for no reason.

You haven't help him answer the simple question I asked. He probably used that time to insult others on Nairaland or other social media or doing one inconsequential thing. Life in itself needs patience. I have waited 4hours before to be interviewed for a job which turned out to be life changer for me even then, I was on another job not jobless as he is.
I have gone for marketing where I have had to wait for almost half a day to see my contact. In life you need patience
The fact that it turned out to be a dream job for you because you waited ..that shouldn't make it normal that one will schedule a meeting for 9am and allow an applicant wait till 3pm..what rubbish..

The fact that you asked him what he was doing all those time is completely senseless..
So he should goof off or do other things..what if the other serious things demands that he leaves his laptop or phone..

Patients doesn't mean you take people's time for granted .. you waited for a customer is different from this case

you people should stop this thing. It's a job interview it's not charity they are offering. You will work for them and they will pay for your services. It's simple. I once walked out of a job I review when they were asking me who is the minister of education. I went for an engineering interview and you are asking me stupid question. I was later called to meet the MD, I still rejected the offer.

Na poverty make people dey look job like charity

Mind you, I didn't even take breakfast before I joined the interview. Must I wait for 24hrs for them to know I really need a job?
