Got turned down for a tech job the other week.
The hiring manager has 3 years of experience.
I have 10+.
They said I wasn’t a “good fit.”
Translation: “Your knowledge intimidates me, and I don’t know how to assess it.”

The first and last time I was fooled.

Attention recruiters:

Provide communication to your candidates after they have interviewed.

A simple status note -no longer interested, pausing our hiring, or not moving to the next round - is the polite thing to do.

Ghosting as a recruiter is not acceptable (nor as potential hire).

Rejecting a candidate for job hopping while offering a role with no clear future or support.
You can’t make this stuff up.

Love when a recruiter says, “We need someone who truly understands AI and DevOps.”
Then I check the job posting, and it’s written by someone who thinks Kubernetes is a programming language.

Was this rejection fair or too harsh? 🤔
