3rd party recruiter reached out to me unsolicited on LinkedIn and I set up a time to connect via Zoom. He then asked if I had SaaS experience which I responded that I did and referenced that my current company was a SaaS vendor and sent my resume. He messages me back 10 minutes later because he doesn’t see any SaaS experience on my resume.. I once again explain my current company. To make things even weirder, he asked me to confirm the calendar invite 3+ times via LinkedIn messaging within 2 hours.. Even after the odd encounter, I took the zoom call. He said he’s from Canada, but there was a massive language barrier between us. He did not sound French Canadian. I have an overview of my background mostly speaking of my relevant SaaS experience. He then asks me again what experience I have with SaaS. I’m not sure if there was too big of a language barrier or if he just didn’t know what SaaS is, but this was a huge turn off. He then read back his notes on my sales stats and they were all wrong, like way off. I had to repeat everything several times. We then discussed salary, which we weren’t close on at all. I also noted that I would only move forward if there was a role I was better aligned with salary wise and I could stay within my field. He said he’d pass everything along to OpenText and they may reach out. I was certain by the end that there was no way they were actually associated with OpenText and may have been trying to sell candidates to them, but to my surprise a representative from OpenText actually reached out to schedule next rounds. There’s no way I would move forward in an interview process after that experience. I wouldn’t entertain the idea of working for a company who handles their interview process this way. I would suggest vetting your recruiting firm not thoroughly or bring recruiting in house.
