The Worst Etiquette of an Interviewer
During the Interview, the interviewer should need to prepare as well and should possess the energy and happy face.
I have interviewed a few months ago, I went to the office an hour prior to the scheduled interview. After he was called by the receptionist, she came with a very unexpected aura.
Interviewer: Please come follow me. (Without any emotion. Just a plain order without any smile on her face).
Me: Okay, Ma'am. Sure.
When we get into the interview room.
Interviewer: Please sit down
Me: Thank you Ma'am.
Interviewer: Okay, thank you for coming.
During the interview, I haven't seen her face smiling as if she's not in a good mood or what. She's always looking at her phone. Her dress is rugged maong and rubber shoes.
Interviewer: My client is in need of ..... a new company. They are in need of a person with a wide background in ____ with more than 10 years of experience or more. May I know your last salary and expected salary.
Me: My last salary is ____ (more than a hundred thousand).
Interviewer: The company can only offer Thirty Thousand Pesos.
Me: For a Managerial Role, it's only Thirty Thousand? I thought the offer is more than my last salary as you have mentioned during our Phone call preliminary discussion. My salary expectation was also listed on my online resume.
Interviewer: Okay. I will just contact you if there's a new role.
As an interviewer, you should always wear a smile. You should be honest. Ask the applicant about their last salary. and if the applicant is willing to receive a lower salary than his/her current or last employment.
It is okay to receive a lower salary, but not 50% lower.
