I was contacted through LinkedIn. I received a friendly message about how my profile was exactly what they were looking for to fill a position. They asked me for a phone interview. I replied -happily. A time was arranged for the interview, but in the meantime I asked for the job profile.
That's when things went wrong -fast. It was obvious from the description, they hadn't actually read my Linkedin profile. In fact, the job was for a French position, and it is clearly indicated that I am English writer only, in the first sentence of my profile.
No big deal - it's happened before because I have a French name. I sent a polite message pointing out the error, and asked if they'd sent me the correct profile.
I never received a reply. The phone interview was the next day - I had no idea whether I was going to receive a call or not. I didn't...
Completely unprofessional way to handle a mistake.
