This was the first initial phone call. From the moment we said "hello," I could tell he was ready to get off the call. The only question he asked me was what my current role/situation is. He never asked anything else. Next, he quickly and unenthusiastically stated the job details.. Since this was my first call, and this was a staffing agency, I couldn't do research on the company I would be working for because it was not listed. This left me with many questions. It seemed like with every question- he became more annoyed. He never asked any IT related questions to challenge my knowledge and not a thing about what I do and don't like about my current employer. I'm pretty sure they knew they would be hiring someone else, but he probably was following procedure and had to make a certain amount of calls. I knew I was not going to get a second interview, although he did have the decency to email and let me know they had "chosen another candidate." "Duh!" I want to say rude things about him, but I'm just hoping he was having a bad day his other calls are more professional than the one I endured.

Short Zoom interview with a technical recruiter to discuss the role and provide my qualifications and salary expectations. We discussed my past work history and experience I have with technical support and troubleshooting, as well as systems I have used in the past for ticketing.
