Man up, they don't need you. They probably have a hundred people like you applying for the position. If you want the job be there on their time. If you ask to reschedule, they will assume you are too busy for them.
They don't owe you squat

Thanks !

You made the right decision.

Great decision. The other thing a lot of companies are doing is virtual interviews. You could have asked if that was an option.

If you have a chance to mention you were so excited at the opportunity you cut your trip home short for the interview, it wouldnt hurt.

Good call. Thats what I wouldve done.

This is a fantastic idea.

I'm thrilled about this opportunity for you, C3. You're going to knock em' dead this week.

You hold no cards, have no power, if you want the job, show up on time.

Man, I totally disagree.

I hired a few back before I retired, but it was a huge corporation that many wanted to work for.

I would have just moved on from anyone wanting to reschedule. Always had plenty of choices.

You made the right decision.

Good luck.

You can't go wrong getting your ass to the interview when they want you there.
However, they are hiring college students for an internship. They should ****ing know that college students are often out of town during winter break, even though some might be within driving distance.
Seems like kind of a dick move by them to not consider (or not care) about this kind of stuff.

Good luck op, I hope you get the position that you're seeking.

With that being said... Walk Chalk!

I wouldn't hire you, if you asked to reschedule in this situation

That's how i see it. He hasn't built a rep to do something like that.
