Any red flags here? I’ve been working with a third party recruiter who contacted me about a new job. Received a verbal job offer for a different position than what I interviewed for. Original position was salaried and the job offer was for an hourly role with the potential for overtime. Was told since my experience was primarily in one area that the hourly role would be a better fit and was asked what lower $$$ range I would consider compared to the original range I gave HR.

The whole thing is a complete red flag! WOE would they offer you a position w/o any interviews? Screams fraud to me.

Yeah same company. Trying to get a sense of the company’s culture through this offer or if anyone has experienced something similar. It seemed off they would ask me if I would accept a lower range than what I already I gave them during the first interview with HR. The position isn’t something I currently specialize in but was interested in this role to learn more in this are, but I have 5 YOE in this field.

What’s the company? Just look into them, doesn’t seem super legit based on what you shared

I’ve heard of this recruiter before even though I haven’t worked with them myself (I don’t have particular feedback about them but at least ‘they exist’ I guess). Honestly it’s not great they’re lowballing you… and as to the hourly position being a better fit, do you agree with them or is it perhaps an ‘inferior’ role? I wouldn’t scream fraud but overall it’s not a great look for them and if I were in your shoes I would be very careful and/or critical
