Phone Interview. Ive had several phone interviews with other employers. Here at JPL I experienced a very rude person. I understand people having a bad day, but if youre not really happy in your job, maybe you should leave it, instead of taking it out on a person who is trying to find a job. Her questions and responses were very short, rude tone of voice, very unprofessional, and overall I'm thinking maybe I dont really want to work there if this is what HR is like.
