Pre-screening via call > interviews Around 2 weeks after applying, I received a call from a recruiter. It was the most disrespectful and impolite interview ever in my life. The recruiter has the worst telephone manners and speaks to me like I am dirt who doesn't deserve to work for them. He doubted and insulted me for switching my career to marketing when I had a BA in another area. He also suspected my certified skills even though I have certificates to prove them. I have attached them along with my resume so he should had them in his hands, so I was confused and felt offended by his distrustful reaction. Throughout the call, he sighed, said "Ughh", and used a disrespectful tone to every of my answers as if he was bored, and kept saying things that implied how annoyed he was when someone like me dared to apply for this role and that it was a waste of his time to get my interview over with. I find that very unprofessional. He had every right not to contact me at all if he saw that I was not qualified, but he still chose to call and insult me and look down on my skills. It could be your bad day or something, but it is important to always remain professional and polite to any candidate you CHOOSE to call. As a recruiter, it's crucial to maintain a positive image of the company and good relationships with the talents. Judging from his behavior and attitude, no matter how the result turns out, I know exactly that I no longer want to proceed. The recruiter's attitude somehow reflects company culture and ethics and I would never want to put myself in such a discouraged environment. Interviews are not only for the company to judge candidates. It is a get-to-know-each-other process where both sides are being evaluated, so I hope this recruiter does realize one day that the candidate also evaluates the company because, after all, nobody applies to only one company. They also have a list of companies in hands to cross out and that could be your company if the hiring process seems to be negative.
