I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Apex Fintech Solutions
Interview
Call with recruiter, terrible experience. Conversation was extremely short and terse. Recruiter demanded salary expectations upfront without any conversation about background or the role itself. Lasted less than 5 minutes total. I declined to continue further.
I applied online. I interviewed at Apex Fintech Solutions (New York, NY)
Interview
Applied through LinkedIn. Recruiter reached out via email to schedule my interview with another recruiter. Talked to the second recruiter over the phone and he didn't know who I was. It seemed like he didn't wanna be there. Received rejection email the next morning.
