Sollicitatiegesprek
Recruiter was super nice and professional. But hiring manager didn’t make a strong impression and didn’t seem to have a clear understanding of the role. She avoided basic questions related to growth and international markets, answered my questions curtly, making it feel I was begging, simply because I applied. She was definitely not experienced for the role.
