That were impossible to answer with out context. I stated I’m not able to answer that question without the other factors that come into play. Kept pushing, so I gave a number, then she backtracked and was like “oh that’s way too much”. I stated that there was no way to answer that question correctly as you omitted all of the important factors to answer such such a question. She then asks me do I have any questions. I stated “No, after this interaction with you, I’m positive that this is not a company that I want to work for nore have anything to do with, have a nice day”. And left the chat. Like WTF
It happens. I also provided feedback as one lady was literally interrogating me.
She wanted to offer me the job but I wouldn’t want to work with her.
Could have been a bad day but told the recruiter and did the survey.
Interviewing is a skill…
Good dodge. Personalities of interviewers are good indicators of the culture and team. No one want to work for dysfunctional organizations unless they absolutely have to, temporarily. Ignorant insecure leaders are some of the worst people to work with and work for. No need to take a job you know you will need to quit in the near future.
This is why I tend to keep my camera off. People are very insecure then take their aggression out on you.
The minute she said that, she had already decided that you were not going to be successful in this interview. She was intimidated by you.
I am so sorry.
And I feel like this type of thing is going to happen more and more.
I loved the way you handled it
Yikes, that sounds like an incredibly bizarre interview! It’s crazy that she seemed more focused on downplaying your achievements rather than really engaging with your experience. It’s good you stood up for yourself and walked away—definitely not the kind of environment you want to be in! You handled it well.
But you’re black.. never forget that..
I had this happen to me..left interview in tears (it was in-person… this was a long time ago)
Sorry this happened to you, F them.
The attack on DEI & micro aggressions is real. Was the salary range not shared? I know NYC is under pay transparency. I don’t even have interviews that’s not in my salary range. On top of all the other red flags,
