None at all
The interviewer’s attitude was seriously problematic. They judged a person’s abilities based on age!
They immediately offered a very unacceptable salary, then randomly flipped through my résumé and told me that, because of my age, I couldn’t receive the salary I had requested!
If they had said my abilities were insufficient, I would have accepted that. But I cannot agree with judging someone based on age!
The salary I requested for the same position—I interviewed at other companies, and no one ever said it was too high.
Of course, I can’t say anything about the company setting its salary; that’s not the point I care about.
Also, they did not ask about my experience at all. At the very least, regarding the NPI lines I’ve handled, I may have handled more than your entire plant....
Then they started scrolling through their phone, continuing to brainwash me by saying that I was too young, and that the company’s benefits were better than those elsewhere, and so on...
They also said that if they had to choose, they would choose your colleague <the previous interviewee>.
He is older than you and didn’t ask for a salary like yours!
Little did they know that my colleague told me he had asked for considerably more than I did... They clearly hadn’t even looked at my résumé.....
Finally—if you’re going to interview there, think twice~
