Had a long phone call with HR for a DevOps Engineer role at Thalès Services. They checked my geographic mobility, explained the company's business, benefits, and offered a salary 10% lower than my current one. I decided to proceed. Then, a video call with HR and the technical lead. They were aggressive, devalued my experience, and asked basic Unix questions, wrongly concluding I was a system admin. This led to a redirection to the infrastructure unit. A second HR call happened, discussing my background and promising a technical interview. After two weeks of silence, I followed up, and the HR person assured me it would be scheduled. Then, radio silence again. Great!
