Applied directly through their website. A few days later I got a surprise phone call from a recruiter at the company in the middle of the work day. To my shock it was a surprise interview and they wanted to interview me right then and there. I apologized and told them I would have to reschedule because I have a meeting and asked if they could call back in an hour. Their response was rather rude, but eventually they agreed.
An hour comes and goes and I don't get a call so I go and eat dinner. Then suddenly here we go again, they are calling ready to interview while I have a full plate of food in front of me. They immediately start asking questions about the tech stack and when I answer there a long pauses in between. Then they asked for a salary and it was WELL under what I was currently making and their response was again rude. At this point I thanked them for their time and rushed them off the phone so I could go back to my cold asparagus.
I have to say, eating that cold asparagus was far more enjoyable than having another minute of conversation with this company.
