Requirement: BA / or combination of experience, Spanish.
Salary range on application - 41k to 52k salary.
I had a wonderful conversation with HR -
After going over my ample experience (10+ years), I had panel interview with 3 team members (who were awesome!). We all connected.
Though when it came down to the offer HR offered the lowest salary of the range, said it was based on experience and that "the team made the decision"
After having discussion around my experience with HR, I counter offered the salary, and asked to please have the team to reevaluate.
3 days later HR called stating "there is not enough equity for this position." Huh?? You mean the budget for the req?
I can't imagine any organization telling any future candidates that the budget designated for a position offered on their website is not available.
RED FLAG
HR is acting like a recruiter, cheating future candidates of a higher salary
