Interview
Applied for a Lab Tech position and was contacted by HR to schedule a phone interview later in the week. HR reached out to me about a higher up position and recommended me to apply for both. Had an in person interview for the higher position with 4 different people and 2 of them were extremely rude and told me to apply at other companies and that I wasn't qualified for the position I was interviewing for.
