Process
Terrible experience. The recruiter called and was extremely interested until I shared my compensation expectations. She then offered me the role as a contract-to-hire with 1/5 of the compensation expectation. I explained that she wasn't close and that it wasn't a reasonable offer, and then she ghosted me.
