- ics 2y agoExasperated, or exasperation, is a feeling experienced by a person. Exacerbation describes a change in quality of something (usually inanimate).
- mathgeek 2y agoCorrect, although IMHO it’s also fine to use exacerbation in this specific example (if you see the problem from a process standpoint instead of the frustration faced by job seekers and recruiters).
