Here’s the bad news: Being late to a job interview is most likely going to make a bad impression. “If you think you’re going to be late, you want to give them some idea about how late you are going to be,” said Phyllis Hartman, founder of the human resources company PGHR Consulting. Doody said blaming other people for your late arrival can come across as “defensive.”“We don’t care why you’re late. You’re late,” Polefrone said. If you know you are going to be 30 minutes late, Polefrone recommends calling the interviewing team rather than texting or emailing.
