This is what happened. The recruiter reached out to me for some hiring event. She canceled twice. Both times I had to WFH or take some time away from work. The last time she canceled was after I waited 10 mins and pinged her. The response was classic. You are too senior for the job posting and ill keep your resume on file if there are opportunities that are suitable for you. Microsoft hiring community - At least have some decency to treat other's time with respect.
There is a reason why your hiring process has got a bad reputation.
