Paraphrasing My Job

Hiring Manager: Candidates need at least 5 years of Loadrunner experience.

Me: This candidate has 8 years.

Hiring Manager: It's only 1 line on his resume. I'm not interested.

Me: Would you like to at least talk to him?

Hiring Manager: No. You're stupid.




Me: Right now the Loadrunner position is our only priority. All of our other hiring managers are out of the office.

Recruiter: OK, we're on it.

***30 minutes later***

Recruiter: Here's candidate X's resume for your other position

Me: Thanks, but this manager is out of town all week. Please focus on Loadrunner

***Next day***

Recruiter: Do you have any feedback on Candidate X?

Me: No, You're stupid.
