Recruiter: I’m having difficulty filling this position.
Also recruiter: Master’s degree preferred; starts at $15.84/hour.
I have heard similar.
One thing I applied for I had every qualification for and did contract stuff several years prior came up. A lot more than I am making.
I submitted my resume and got a phone call a few minutes later. The recruiter was going to offer a great deal less than advertised and sounded like a broken record. I said goodbye.
They called again a few minutes later saying essentially the same thing. I hung up.
Never heard from them again.
