Unlike the downvoters here, I applaud the fact that you have ethical and morals standards and can afford to stick with them. If more engineers did that, the world would be a better place.
- chrisseaton 7y agoI'm not sure there's anything ethical about berating a line recruiter. If you don't want to work there just politely decline the offer. Don't take it out on someone just trying to put food on their family's table.
- pmiller2 7y agoAsking a question and expecting a satisfactory answer is not berating someone.
- kenjackson 7y agoIt's asking a question and already knowing the answer to someone who has almost no ability to impact it. That's like going to McDonald's and asking the cashier if the hamburgers used killed cows in them. And when they say yes, say, "I'm not eating here then!". It's a show.

- runawaybottle 7y agoDude, Amazon is going to have this candidate sit through hours of phone screens, and faang level interviews, it’s not like they lower their standards. Sure, it’s a tad pretentious (honestly it’s the most pretentious thing I’ve read all day lol) on her part, but whatever, no one is perfect. It’s all part of the game.
