Job Interview - Recensione dipendente - Dipendente anonimo presso Aviva

Had an odd experience during a job interview for an Account Receivable/Junior Accountant. I had a rough estimate of the size of receivables portfolio I worked with. These days job applicants are encouraged to include $ numbers because the accountants like numbers and can get a feel quantitatively the volume of work and level of responsibility the applicant had in their last role. I even saw the same advice on LinkedIn recently. My former supervisor was okay with what was on my resume and reviewed it in preparation to be my employment reference. Further my former employer is a public company and publishes its financial statements online for all to see. I got repeatedly scolded up by one of the 5 interviewers for including $ numbers on my resume and the others remained passive. He was repeating the same sentence over and over something to the effect: "You put numbers on your resume". I can't tell you what I really thought about him but I can say that he didn't appear to have a straight head. The 5 staff who interviewed me seemed like clerical staff and weren't particularly insightful or they didn't have HR/recruitment skills. I didn't get the job and I have been counting my blessings since.
