I have a screening call with a recruiter at Booz Allen for a position I applied for. What should I expect? Anyone from Booz with some tips of wisdom for me?

They typically go down the job announcement line by line and ask if you’ve ever done those tasks or your familiarity with the project. If you already have done it before then be prepared to share but the screening call is usually short and goes over the very basics of your application. They did ask my salary range and once I got my offer I ended up negotiating $20k more and included a hybrid schedule.

Not sure an answer exists for this question. Really depends on the hiring manager.

Hiring manager knows if me through a client. Not sure that means anything at all though.

More important I hit all the requirements and about 80% of the "nice to have" requirements.

Should I be prepared to explain my experiance or be passive and listen then answer questions?

I'm sure introductions will cover your experiences and intentions. Questions typically come after.

Please, I need your opinion on this. I have 6 years of experience as a software developer and just finished my masters degree in data science. Now I am looking for a job here in the US. I went through the hiring process with this company and finally got an offer. They offered 88k/year and I responded opening a negotiation. They emailed me back saying that I am no longer in this process anymore with no further explanation and in Thanksgiving day. Is that normal?that email really got me very upset
