Had an initial screening call with a recruiter. The call was professional and friendly. Questions were based on the job description, and I was asked to give examples that demonstrated some of the required skills.

Question 1
While not asked directly, they seemed interested in whether my answers reflected the company’s values.
I had the initial screening and it went really well. Very friendly conversation with about 10 questions about myself, my experience, my knowledge about the position and logistical stuff. It took around 20 mins.
I applied online. I interviewed at Coolblue (Utrecht) in Apr 2024
Interview
First/screening interview. Extremely rude recruiter that 1) did not read my resume 2) was not interested in listening when I presented myself 3) interrupted me 15/20 seconds into each response 4) had absolutely no idea about the position and still decided to ask technical questions from a list she was reading from. After I did not give the “correct” answer, she immediately ended the interview.
On top of that, the salary was 20/30% lower than the industry average.
