Interview
Recruiting reached out. They were fine. Had an great initial interview with the recruiter. Then I had an interview with the Head of HR for US. It was such a sad and offensive experience. From the moment he began the call, he was disinterested. The tone, apathy around the questions. Oh, and let me not forget that he yawned three times in the middle of our interview -- never did he even acknowledge or apologize for the rude gestures. I am so sorry I wasted your valuable time.
