First zoom interview with emily was ok. But second interview physically with a guy was triggering. Kept slamming every answer negatively. Not a single of respect for others opinions. Very unprofessional, kept pushing for sales role. Said talent acquisition is like sales????

Why do you want to work here? Your previous job very stable and high pay. Just continue there despite me saying multiple times I want work life balance, which is something that they offer in their ads LOL

It was a very unpleasant and uncomfortable experience for me. Throughout the whole interview, the interviewer was very rude, condescending and dismissive of my answers to his questions, its like he wasnt even trying to listen to what I have to say, and that all his answers were the ‘right’ one. It is very ridiculous for an interviewer to act like that. When asked to explain about my current/previous working experience which is freelancing, he immediately gave me an annoyed and judgy look and said ‘so what have you been doing for the past year?’. I immediately said that ive also been actively searching and applying for jobs and proceeded to explain that the job market is very challenging nowadays. He also added on to say that im not using my diploma to my fullest advantage and i was like mindblown. Just because i wanted to do something different and unique, it feels so wrong to him. Honestly, I cant believe what I am actually hearing so I just nodded my head, said thank you and end the meeting. Oh, and also, shouldnt their HR personnel interview me and not an experienced individual in their marketing team?

The interviewer I met was rude, dismissive, and condescending from the start. His overall manner suggested a sense of superiority, which set a negative tone for the conversation.
The interview felt more like a brainstorming session than an actual interview. He asked how I would maintain a steady pipeline of Financial Advisors and what challenges exist in FA recruitment. When I redirected these questions back to him, his answers were basic and not unique, which made it clear he was looking for ideas rather than properly assessing my suitability.
I highlighted that one key challenge in FA recruitment is the lack of a basic salary compared to banker roles. He quickly rebutted this by saying bankers do not earn a basic salary unless they hit targets, which is factually incorrect. When asked how many FAs he had recruited, he said 5–6 over the year and framed this as being done “out of goodwill,” adding that my numbers would need to be higher since I would be paid.
When I asked whether the role would be onsite or hybrid, he responded condescendingly that it would be fully onsite. He explained that work-from-home options had previously been offered but the results were “not favourable.” This implied that new hires would bear the consequences of others’ past performance rather than being assessed individually.
Overall, the experience showed a clear misalignment in values and working style. Based on the interaction and existing reviews, I chose to withdraw from the process quickly. I am confident this was the right decision, as working with someone so arrogant and money-driven would be more difficult than the role itself.
