I have an initial recruiter phone interview with Square Thursday. Is it it just a phone call or is it a video call and they didn’t specify. If it’s a video call what’s the dress code like? I’m coming from consulting so all my interviews were in suits. Any tips to get past the recruiter phone screen?

After 2 follow ups - I take the L. Was it a legit recruiter?? I’ve had two “fake” recruiters get a bunch of info from me and then ghost in the past.
Oh, if it was an external HH then yea they’re just mining resumes. It’s fine to chat bc sometimes it does lead somewhere, but I wouldn’t get any hopes up until you are actually in front of the client. Also, don’t share with them where you’ve applied or “companies you’re interested in” - they use that information to go after those companies as clients, but not with you in mind.
I interviewed with a company and haven’t heard anything back smh. Idk what’s going on with these recruiters/companies these days.
No, if you’ve already reached out - via 2 channels too - let it lie. If they’re going to respond, they’ll respond. Only thing you can accomplish by continuing to reach out is to come across as desperate.
Don’t mistake recruiter’s excitement about you for the employer’s excitement. The recruiter sees a sale. That’s all.
