With the job market being rough for pretty much everyone right now, the internet has witnessed a wave of something truly terrible — the rude recruiter. That is, employers who see a poor job market as nothing more than an opportunity to take advantage of desperate job seekers.
A 26-year-old man recently shared his interview experience online, where the recruiter started laughing after he stated his salary expectations. The employer called the figure “cute” and said the company only offered a “rockstar team” instead of higher pay or benefits. The candidate ended the Zoom call before the interview could finish.
Bored Panda spoke to the author of the post to get more context on what happened and how he felt about the situation afterward.
