AITA if I lose interest the moment someone says they worked for FAANG or MBB and then say they were a recruiter?

Yes, out of all recruiters they’re probably on the better end of their field, just like you’re probably on the better end of slide making. Your attitude is like a software engineer having no respect for the best consultant in the world bc it’s not what they do

Lmaooo, yeah when recruiters claim the ex-mbb brand on LinkedIn, makes me cringe even harder than when consultants do it

I mean within the recruiting space being an MBB recruiter is probably good reputation. Who are you to gate keep what ex-MBB means

... What would you prefer instead? That they lie about or omit their experience? Faang, MBB and other firms hire a wide variety of people for a wide variety of corporate needs. That includes software engineers, consultants, recruiters, and janitors.

Ehhhh. Maybe? Recruiters just have different energy.

Also, is it worth spending upto 20 lacs on a car?

But I am considering one time as well as running cost. My CTC is more than 35 LPA.
