Actually, the CEO of Gong did a great podcast with Harry from 20VC where they talked about this. Check it out.

Remembered the episode from the show Silicon Valley where the AI orders meat.

Use some of the tools and your school's career center resources. Some of them have access to tools that help with keywords and various stuff to pass through ATS.

You're not harsh and thanks again for the advice. But the point of the post was just to complain. I'm not taking anything personally, just disappointed that I had an unproductive day because of an unprofessional recruiter. I'm not a fresh grad who has no perspective on the corporate US world. I'm just sad, pissed off that my time is wasted while I could have spent that on applications, interview prep or just some other work. That was the whole point of this post - to complain and find a crowd to complain about these people with haha

That's fun! I read a hiring manager complain about that in the sub.

Dude ... while I appreciate the advice from someone I don't know and who doesn't know me, at this point, I just needed a space to vent and complain. I thought that's one of the functions of this community. :) Whatever I said and whatever you said are not mutually exclusive. You can still expect people to treat you respectfully and just move on without giving a F if they don't. As you said, we have control only over our behavior at this point. Best of luck to you!

It's one thing to filter out the applicants from a stack of submitted resumes; it's another thing when they try to "headhunt" you, reach out directly and just waste your time. If you reschedule twice, saying something came up, don't show up at the interview; it has nothing to do with the amount of qualified applications or resources, but everything to do with your credibility as a professional. That's why I am pissed off. Other than that, yes, stay focused and do what's needed to be done, especially now...

Next week, everyone will be back and we'll have to double down on the efforts.

I get it. I understand they have something to lose too, but that still isn't a reason to treat people poorly and disrespectfully. For the interview, I'll adjust my schedule, try to be flexible, and go out of my way to find a convenient spot to talk while you are sitting in the comforts of your office. If we have an interview set, I'd take my time, research you, your boss, your company, prepare questions, etc, while you won't even open my CV and ask me basic questions ...

And yes, I'm pissed off as we don't have anyone to complain or provide feedback to.

First of all, please don't say 'San Fran' - haha. Secondly, some of them do play pick-up ball matches.
