I interviewed for a position I know I'm very well qualified. 2 of 4 Interviewers showed up. They advised I would hear with in 2 wks. Less than 3 hrs later I have 3 emails: "Welcome"; on- boarding link; & corporate re: pay scale: $15/hr pt, 3wk training, $17 for ft job 4-6 mo. contract.
The one I left at end of contract last yr, same work but a different co. (same location/area) pd $25/hr. I think I feel insulted. I need a job but not sure I need this one. 🤔 Any opinions/advise appreciated.

If you can hold out, do so, or negotiate a higher hourly rate. You always have options.

If it's not what you want, pass on it. Or tell them you're interested but they would have to do better on the compensation, plus you'd want some job security. If you absolutely need the job, don't be too demanding. But don't settle for a lowball offer, especially if you feel insulted by it.

Offering advice to job seekers who go around recruiters and message hiring teams, execs, etc. You are putting the Recruiters job in danger. If a Recruiter declines you or doesn’t choose to reach out, it is because the hiring team declined you, or you don’t have the experience. You will most likely not be considered for future roles because of this. When I see people giving advice to reach outside the Recruiter, it’s bad advice. Very rare is this a good idea.
