I've been job hunting for the past month and a half, and I'm really getting fed up with some of the rude behavior on the part of potential employers.

Employers run ads sometimes asking you to apply in person and giving a phone number to call for more information.  I've called a few and just got a recording restating the limited information in the ad.  Others have actually had a live person, but they're usually rude and won't give out any information about the job.  So I go to apply and find out either that I'm not qualified/suitable for the position, or else that it's a scam.

I went to one place today that was a 2 1/2 hour bus ride away.  The interviewer decided to interview 2 people at a time.  The other applicant in there with me used to be in management.  Naturally, between those two guys I couldn't get a word in edgewise.  The interviewer said he was looking for "personality".  Well, with the other guy hogging the interview I didn't get a chance to show my personality!

I went to one place where they didn't tell me what the job was, asked me 2 questions which I couldn't answer very well without knowing the nature of the work, and then said they'd call me if they were interested.

I got an email last Friday from the general manager of a staffing firm saying that he liked my resume and that he would call me Monday to do a brief phone interview.  He didn't give a time for the interview.  I don't have a cell phone, so I had to wait at home Monday for him to call.  He never did.  I called him today and spoke to the receptionist who took a message, said they had been busy, and as there were VIPs in the office today I shouldn't expect a phone call until tomorrow.

Anybody else got any horror stories?
