I was invited for an interview for a fixed term contract via a recruiter. I sat down afew questions and pleasantries were exchanged and then I got 'This cv got though the algorithm because of who you've worked for [in the past] then passed comment on the amount if contract work I've done despite interviewing for a contract role. It was dismissive and unprofessional — essentially telling me I was only there by accident, despite them inviting me in the first place. Thinking back it probably wasn't the best fit but the words still stung. Bullet dodged.
