The Most Disrespectful Company I Ever Applied to or Met Recruiters from. I will never work for them or even do any kind of business with that company. Summary: * Only a 2-day notice for the first interview and only one day available to do it. So much considering applicants work/life responsibilities * Recruiters ask illegal immigration questions in the middle of the recruiting process * Applicants are very insistently asked to give an expected salary when they don’t even know the job title/level they are recruited for * Disrespectful recruiters that laugh and hang up at candidates in between in-person interviews when they do not follow previous point * Company does not even respond when inquiring about the above. The recruiting process started on the right foot. The recruiters and engineers I met at a career fair seemed very interested in my profile and scheduled, on the spot, a 45 minutes technical interview at a career center two days from then. The interview went extremely well and I learned they had a lot of openings to fill so they were not sure in which team my skills would be of most use - they had several in mind. Considering how well the interview went, the skills they were looking for and knowing the skills/experience of most people interviewing that day, I certainly was amongst their top candidates. The interview lasted 75 instead of 45 minutes, but I can deal with that. Early the next week I got an email asking me for time slots for an onsite interview one week later. I responded right away and had to wait 2 days to hear back. One of their recruiters called me. He started by asking immigration questions - not just work authorization but citizenship, visa status, and so on which is illegal in California - and insisted on me telling him my expected salary. Note that, at that point, not only do I have no idea what benefits/bonuses they offer, but I didn't even know what the job title would be, what level I would be hired at, what team I would be working with, what responsibilities I would have, what the on-call schedule was like (1/2 or 1/10 weeks? Huge difference!), and so on. I explained to him that all those factors would influence what I expect and that as long as they pay their employees within the local market range that would be fine with me. No, he wanted a hard fixed number and told me I would not move forward in the process if I did not give him one. I re-explained the previous point and emphasized that, if he insisted on talking numbers and was worried I would not accept their offer down the line, he could tell me what the company is offering: after all, I do not want to lose my time with them either. I am open to discussing more detailed figures once I have an actual offer. THE RECRUITER LAUGH AT ME AND HANG UP! I was calm and polite, with a professional conversation style, the whole time and the LAUGH AND HANG UP! I immediately emailed back the person who contacted me to schedule the on-site interview to let them know of that surreal situation and that I could not believe they would endorse such behavior and that the recruiter’s behavior must have been a flux. It’s been a week and I still have not heard anything
