As a job applicant, I am disappointed that I was not given the opportunity to come in for an interview. The person who contacted me obviously thought I was qualified. However, what I found unpleasant was talking about hourly rate on the first call when in reality, the salary she mentioned was below of what the posting indicated. Why not discuss salary after you have given the applicant the opportunity to discuss his/her credentials and qualifications in a one-on-one meeting. I am certain that my experience and background qualified me for the high end salary mentioned in the posting. Thanks for taking this into consideration with the next candidate you choose to contact.
