![]() Sometimes a "no" is a huge blessing in disguise, and I think this was one of mine. I got a rejection email and was actually relieved. First impressions for phone screenings go both ways. I had been so excited to interview there, but after the call I did not want the job. HR also casually mentioned they did not like their coworkers, so on top of sounding like they hated their life, that was a huge red flag for me. Despite this, HR still mentioned I had the right background and a good understanding of the role. I got interrupted multiple times and HR would ask me a related question, but if they had waited another second or two they would have heard that I was about to answer it anyway. I would try to incorporate that into my answers, but it was obvious all they were looking for were the general answers to the "what ifs" and did not care about talking about the actual role itself. Questions were standard behavioral questions, but HR did not give me a chance to talk about past achievements or how my skills could benefit the open role. I had a phone screening with an HR recruiter who sounded so disinterested/tired/bored I could not wait for it to get over.
