Have you ever been to a job interview and the interviewer insulted and degraded you?
Hi everyone. Just now, I went for a job interview, not my first but definitely the first where one of the interviewers was just a legit c–t. The whole time, the main interviewer who was the manager was disinterested. The other interviewer was the head of HR.
My first impression of the manager was really… Like huh? This is supposed to be a really corporate setting but his beard looked like it had been growing for weeks at least. He looked really out of shape and nothing wrong with that but he could have at least worn a shirt which fit him. He didn’t even do the overall dress code right, he wore a polo-t and jeans on a Monday… Everyone else I saw followed the corporate dress code.
I gave my intro which included my work experience and after that, he just proceeded to completely s–t on it. It was as if his aim of the interview was to devalue all my previous work experience. The manager brought up that he also had worked for said company and made statements questioning my previous job scope because he had worked there before.
I never met him at my previous workplace and might be because he could have been there much earlier than when I joined but who knows if he is lying and just trying to intentionally pull out something from me.
He didn’t even consider that I was assigned more important projects or other secondary roles or had a broader job scope or did more ot than him. I did try to tell explaining to him why and how I got all those stuff that helped me progress in my career.
I even included references from my previous employers and even schools to show that I am actually someone that has a good record even as a student. He just ignored it, cussed softly and even insulted me saying that my level of experience was insignificant and my current drawn salary was sus.
The manager left the interview early and ended off by telling the head of HR that he rests his case on whether I am able to fulfill the offered position… All he did was s–t on me. The rest of the interview with the head of HR didn’t go well and it wasn’t her at all but by that point I felt so insulted and sad.
It really… really sucks tbh. I had two interviews today, this was the second one. The first one went pretty well. They were even open to having me and allowed me time so I could weigh my options since I have to serve a 1 month notice for my current job anyway. I was not expecting such a 180 for my second interview of the day.
Has anyone else had such a shtty job interview experience? Part of me really hates that c–t right now.. I really feel like giving him a piece of my mind along with a free course of my fists, knees, kicks, elbows and slams….
