Process
The recruiter took everything I said and turned it into corporate buzzwords. When the interview was ending, he indicated that I should work on communicating more clearly.
I asked him if the expectation was that I speak more like he did, and he said, "Yes."
Buzzwords do not equal clarity in communication.
