Behavioral Other

the interview was conducted by Specialized Learning supports supervisors and not HR. They asked personal questions that were outside of the labor code. The interviewers were dismissive and unprofessional, and they stated they were upset to have to work on their day off. The entire interview felt like a cruel 'gotcha' game.
