The mindset of some recruiters nowadays

So i approached a PM at klub, a revenue based financing firm & asked him about open positions. He forwarded my cv to the hr.

Couple of days later, the hr called me & we had an initial discussion. Then he scheduled an intro round with a PM.

I had the PM round which was completely behavioral. It seemed like he was not much interested in the interview & took it just for the sake of it. Questions like tell me about yourself, why klub, why PM were asked.

2 weeks later i called the hr(yes, there were no responses from them) & asked him whats the status to which he replied, we have proceeded with another candidate.

Here comes the interesting part

I asked him to provide me a reason because i didnt get any feedback from the PM. This is the conversation which happened He: we are looking for pm with experience in api integrations only Me: okay so why was that not mentioned in the JD He: the requirement was changed later & also you dont have the experience required(1-3 yrs) Me: so why did you contact me in the 1st place if you thought i didnt have enough experience? Also, there are 2 guys who are working at klub who are from consulting background & have no experience whatsoever but they're apm He: but you need to understand that they are from tier 1 college, bits pilani & iit madras Me: how does that make a difference in product experience? I have worked on & built real products even if its for 10 months, all they have are hypothetical case studies, its not like they have been entrepreneur at past He: no we have specific requirements & the hiring manager didn't see yours as a fit

Hr will hire people with no experience but from a premium college than people with experience but from a not so known college
