This happened very recently not sure if this was the worst!
Phone conversation:
Me: (Briefly describing the roles and techstacks I've been using for the past couple of years in various companies) ... so that's me in a nutshell.
Recruiter: So can you tell me about what you are working on at your current company?
Me: Although I just told you about what I have been doing in my whole career, let me rephrase the last part for highlighting you. (Rephrasing the exact way I described my current role just a while ago) ... do you have a better understanding now?
Recruiter: Yes, yes, thank you. So can you tell me now how many projects did you work on and how was your involvement on those projects in your current company?
Me: (Starting to get annoyed at this point) Do you have my resume in front of you? It's updated which actually has all these answers to your questions unless you actually want me to show you my codes or tell you more in detail like what IDE I used to code.
Recruiter: Yes, I have your resume but it's a summary of your work. and..
Me: (Interfering the process and start talking) Did you go through my Linkedin profile? All the major projects I've ever worked in are listed there with detailed information you'd need to know. No offence to you but from here I think i'd like to talk to the hiring manager or someone who has a better understanding about the role you have listed. Thank you for your call, now I have some other matters in my hand to attend to. have a good day. (And then I hang up immediately)
