Following my initial application, I was contacted to set up an in-depth phone interview. However, 1 day before the interview, the primary recruiter reached out to me saying I was "no longer qualified/under consideration" for the position. I emailed back explaining my confusion and shortly after received a call from the recruiter. During this phone call, they asked me 1 question and proceeded to cut me off halfway through my answer to reiterate that I was not qualified for the role. Overall, very unprofessional on all fronts. How can a company recruit for a role when they don't even know what they want? Could the recruiter not have waited until the scheduled time to discuss my qualifications in a more professional manner or is their time simply THAT valuable?

The hiring manager/owner contacted me within 24 hours and we have a really nice virtual interview. The interview was layed back and the manager made the interview comfortable and not stressful
