My experience was with a recruiter reaching out to me via email, asking if I'd be interested in joining their team. We scheduled a phone call to discuss the position and next interview steps. The recruiter was not prepared for the call, at least not tailored to me specifically. Halfway through the call he said he's looking for senior designers with minimum 6 years experience (something I don't have and never claimed to have) and seemed disappointed when I said I had 2 years experience, even though that's clear on my website and LinkedIn, places he must've reviewed in order to contact me. Clearly it was a waste of my time and his. This is just one major incident in a phone call filled with red flags, especially as a woman in tech. At the end of the call, probably out of politeness, he asked for me to email him my portfolio. I obliged. He never personally responded to my email, not with a "received" or "thanks". Three business days later I got an automated email from a different email address saying I was no longer being considered.
