      Administrative Coordinator Interview

      Aug 12, 2019
      Anonymous Interview Candidate
      No offer
      Positive experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied online. I interviewed at Salk Institute

      Interview

      Initial phone interview with a recruiter, who was pleasant enough although abruptly ended the conversation when she heard my salary requirements (which are not exorbitant). The recruiter explained that the low salary was because the position was "entry-level", which of course is confusing given the job description requires previous experience with contracts and 5+ years business, administrative and/or legal secretary experience. Simply stated, it seems they are looking for an experienced person willing to work at entry-level pay. Nonetheless, I appreciated her transparency: no need to waste either of our time.
