I had a call with a team member for a position I'm in the interview process for (soon to have a call with the recruiter). The person seemed passive aggressive during the call and hung up on me before I was able to say thank you for his time or bye. I didn't have my interview yet but I was told that this call is known to the team and the recruiter. Does it seem like I bombed the interview before even having the interview since it didn't end on a good note?

Nah it seems more like a problem with the team member than anything else. Don’t worry about it and focus on impressing the recruiter and official interviewers.

Thank you for your input!

Go forward with the interview if you want but be on the look out for other such behaviors from potential teammates. Obviously I don’t know the whole story but you made that person sound like someone I wouldn’t want to work with. Trust your gut - if other conversations end similarly you might be headed for a toxic environment.

Good luck! Just remember the recruiter isn’t going to be the one you’re working with. Fingers crossed for no more red flags from your actual teammates.
