I did a phone interview which was unprofessionally conducted by someone reading scripted questions with no interest in my answers. I get that it's for screening purposes but when the interviewer didn't even seem engaged in her job, I should have walked away. The interviewer did not know what the pay range for the position but this is something she should know. An in-person interview was scheduled with an extremely nice woman who realized the HR screener wasted both of our time as the starting pay was $10 less than my asking. The screener had my requested starting pay and honestly couldn't put it together that this was a waste of time. With how low the unemployment rate is, more applicants than not are already employed and salary is a huge factor.
