Interview
I have to say, the worst recruiter screening I've had in my career.
First time I have been bullied into proving that I have the requirement of 5 year experience. The recruiter then starts arguing with me and begins to count the years and months of each role on my CV on the call. Continues with saying that "it's actually not enough, but fine, I'll pass it to the hiring manager". Further, bullies me into saying my salary requirements.
Hiring manager proceeds with me and invites me for the first interview.
I then request to clarify the salary range only to get an answer that my expectations are within it and they won't tell me anything.
