Interview
I applied online and scheduled a first interview after a two-week wait. During the interview, they informed me that they were considering me for a different position, not the one I initially applied for. They asked if I was open to a remote position, to which I agreed. However, they then expressed concerns that I might not be suitable for the role because I showed a preference for remote work, even though I had mentioned that I was flexible in my working environment. Furthermore, the recruiter insinuated that I might be actively job hunting while currently employed. Interestingly, he criticized my lack of knowledge about their company, even though he hadn't provided any introduction or information about their company and its operations.
