Process
The phone interview was relatively easy, but the recruiter sounded distracted the entire time. It felt like she was working on something else and only half-talking to me.
'If we had to compare ourselves to a school, we're like, the Harvard of companies,' she said in the most pretentious voice possible. I withdrew immediately.
