Technical questions about Network components, Cloud architecture, Security, CDN...
Since I don't care at all about money, I asked for the exact same salary I currently earn, instead of asking for 20% more than my current salary, which is what literally everybody does.
The recruiter accused me of thinking only about money and made clear no assessment of my skills would have been performed in order to establish if I'm worth that salary or not.
The day after I got an email stating that I was not selected.
