From the perspective of candidate to employer. I am the candidate asking for the call.
How long do you stick around waiting?
When do you just call it a day?
When do you push back and say you're not available?
What about in the case of them asking to reschedule, how do you handle that?
What if you get blown off again?
I get it I am the one asking for favors, but I value my time as well.
To clarify, is this scenario for a phone interview (you’re a ‘candidate’) or simply a networking call? Very different responses to each
Facing the same situation, and for networking. What do you do?
Politely ask them if they are still able to speak to you. Explain that you know they must be busy, and that you're happy to do so at a time convenient for them. They're the ones who are busy af, therefore you work around their schedule. You can't take it personally, odds are they have a million more important things on their plate.
agree with this for sure, but don't be too big of a pushover
call it quits when the dude stops responding to your emails after three tries, if he keeps rescheduling just go along with it until he ignores you completely. "ok no problem, how about day 1 2 3, i am available from x to y"
wait about 15-20 mins after your scheduled call time to politely send him an email asking if he can still chat or does he need to resched
never play email tag, when u send an email tell the dude when you're available on more than one day and in large blocks of time
you got this future MD

Problem, I asked the best number to reach, and the response was, I'll call you
