My current job was less than a week between my application and signing the final offer.
Day 1: I send in an application.
Day 2: My future manager writes back “Hey, do you have any work examples in obscure language I used for 10 minutes in my EE classes?.” I respond “No, nobody has work examples in obscure language.”
Later that day, same manager emails me again, asking the same question, in slightly different words. I say no again. They respond asking to set a time for an interview. I reply I’m free tomorrow.
Day 4, interview. Takes an hour and half. I receive a job offer about an hour later. I reply we need to have a conversation about salary.
Weekend rolls through, negotiations are successful and I’m hired on Monday.
Haha, that’s my job interview with Nestlé, but the opposite. I say them nobody has the experience with the obscure language, they say they’re unable me to pay what I ask, and we’re done.
