Negative ExperienceNo Offer

Process

I applied through the website and, within an hour, received an email to arrange a call with the recruiter.

The call started with the recruiter asking some questions very directly. When I didn't understand a question very well, the recruiter became annoyed that I hadn't understood. The recruiter also didn't show any enthusiasm when describing the job positions.

Based on the questions asked, I also believe the recruiter hadn't read my profile at all. I ended the call, as I thought the discussion would not move further.
