This boils down to expected status differentials. Most of the time, the candidate is supposed to have lower status than the company hiring him. Leaving early challenges the perception that the candidate has lower status, and implicitly lowers the status of the company (in other words, it humiliates it). And the standard defence to humiliation is taking offence.
- Freestyler_3 14y agoI don't think all applicants need to be bowing down for the o so great company that is granting them this interview. Business equality. There are 2 sides of the coin. Company can say no to applicant because they see no future in it so canceling saves money. Applicant can't say no to company because it humiliates them. You can turn company and applicant around, what stays is that the money is saved on company side and time for applicant. The company or the applicant gets humiliated, who has to go home and tell someone (family/friends) that they didn't get the job. The company staff just continuous their routine, because that is company ritual.
