Have you ever felt like beating the recruiter with shoe/chappal/sandal

I felt it once when he offered me a majestic hike of 2 lakh on my current salary. Please note i was NOT jobless/on-bench and told him specifically i am looking for growth opportunities. Also, my salary is in XX lpa range. That recruiter didnt budge from his 2 lpa increment and i said thanks but no thanks to his generous offer after wasting my 3 days over technical rounds

Fuk. Yes for sure, everyday. I went through major medical situation & doctor told me to stay at home for 3 Months - I resigned from prev org. On bedrest for 4 weeks.

I applied there before the operation, and they scheduled interviews, ghosted me for months & bla bla shit. Finally rolled out offer stating that I'm at home & "should" be able to join immediately. Which I denied & (their audacity) to threaten me that they multiple people waiting for the role.. on top of that they just gave me an hike of 1Lakh.. stating that I don't have any offer as of now.. and they are "being generous" - 🔔

Oh finally I denied. Can't take risk with my health & landed a better opportunity but there as well the recruiter did the same.. cheap hike, threatening behavior lol. I don't know how they develop such a behavior.
Although my interviews were great so I was able to negotiate alot :))

That chappal should be dipped in water and then slammed on HR face. They act as if they’re the company’s well wishers

Every other recruiter and HR I deal with is like this. Questions like why frequent job switches.. Why a gap after layoff? I get that they probably have to type it into a form, but seriously fuck these ghouls.

It's demand supply economics. No need to get personal or emotional about it

Felt when wissen technology hr gave a whooping 3 lakhs increment after completing 3 rounds of interviews. My dumb ass even agreed as I am in transition from Qa to Dev. Hr's should be atleast generous..

Yes it’s very common. For me the recruiter agreed for the hike before interviews and after I cleared all three rounds, they picked a candidate who agreed for a very low salary budget. There’s always going to be someone who can replace you with a cheaper budget. The only thing you can do is stand out with your profile and work..

HR folks mostly do that kind of things most of the times and it happens with many people, so yes
