Hang in there. You have been through worse and came out on the other side :) 

Did you let them know you missed that change in schedule? Don't be discouraged. 

Did you explain what happened to them and ask for another interview this week? They should understand if you didn't get their message - at least they should if they are decent human beings. I am so sorry this happened to you and I really hope it can be fixed. I would say to not let it get you down but I know you are so disappointed and probably pissed - but do take good care of yourself! 

I;m so tired, i';m not making enough money, i'm going deeper into dept, i feel like crap. All i needed was this job to fix a lot of things. Yes, i sent them an email. She sent me the first email with "please confirm the time" I sent an email back with the exact confirmed time, but in between, she said she changed it, and the email with the "tele-meeting" link had a different date. I just didn't read it . Since I already confirmed. I also screwed up, but I never confirmed the new date with her, so we both screwed up. Heck, my first interview, THEY were a NO SHOW. I"m gonna go cry and try to sleep.  

can you just go to the meeting tomorrow and see what happens. maybe they will go ahead and do it. if you have no other plans ,what will it hurt to try. 

Mvan, nope, it was a phone interview via webex, and the company is a large one, no way to get into building to person. Must have appointment and badge 

"interview change" isn't a thing... if they're rescheduling an appointment with you then they should have apologized, asked you for a new time (and be more obvious about that than just making the calendar link for a different day than what was discussed) and then waited for your response. I would definitely push back a little -- the screw-up is on their end, so hopefully they will be gracious and reschedule at a time you can both do. If not, considering how they conduct themselves, maybe you dodged a bullet. 

John I agree, they did it all when I confirmed the first appointment. They they sent me confirm email with time and date of conference I didn't look closely to see she said she was sorry and changed it. My bad too I didn't catch it, but I sent confirmation for Monday not Friday, and should have caught it and asked for another confirmation. I sent email and did not apologize.  

well, good luck with it. it may still all work out. I think that if someone's going to send you a calendar link for a different day than you discussed, then it's on them to *bend over backwards* to make sure it's unambiguous. especially if they didn't show up for your last appointment. this person sounds incredibly unprofessional. 

Johnsip I agree, she's just the scheduling assistant, so hopefully she makes it right, I read the emails and one said sorry I had to change it and I missed it. Thanks everyone, I'll.try to keep my chin up,  

Arrrgh! Job interviews are such a pain!
