What if interviewer is late?

Wait 15 to 20 minutes and then attempt calling the interviewer. After 15 to 20 minutes have passed, you should give the interviewer a call at the number that was provided. This can allow you to immediately speak with the interviewer if they answer to either reschedule or begin the interview.
