Probably the worst interaction I've had with a recruiter. He was difficult to work with, not flexible with scheduling and was playing phone tag with candidates on scheduling. I never got the follow up interview email and glad I'm not moving forward. Hiring manager call for Arc XP (tech division) was disrespectful as well, he cut me off when I explained my previous work in details and won't shut up about his current team's problems.

I applied to a position where I met 80% of the listed requirements, and which said "It’s okay to not meet 100% of these requirements! We’re primarily looking for people who meet some of these requirements and are motivated to learn new technologies and expand their skill set." After the initial recruiter screen, I had a very brief technical screen, in which I was asked about my familiarity about technologies NOT listed in the job description. I was honest about having little-to-no experience in most of them, but stressed my willingness to learn. At the end of the interview, I asked what they look for in candidates. The response: "Mostly people who are familiar with the technologies we use." Not surprisingly, I ended up getting ghosted. Look, I understand that they need someone who's a good fit, but get the job descriptions and interviewers aligned on what exactly that means. My time was 100% wasted, I was never given a formal rejection, and not to mention both people I spoke with were rude and dismissive. Bullet dodged.
