Interview
A lady called me and asked me about my expectiation. Then she asked me salary. After I said the number (which was an average number for engineers with experiece in cloud computing), she directly said I don't match their requirements. After saying thank you she hang up the phone. I have to say it's very RUDE!! I've been to many interviews and none of HRs was as unprofessional as this lady. The whole process only took 2 mins. I can't believe I waste two minutes on this non-sense call.
Thank you for your review. Apologies if it was not clear but we felt the job and your expectations weren’t aligned as the role does not involve a cloud computing aspect. We know a candidate’s time is valuable and do not want to waste it if expectations do not match the job requirements.
