I applied for a remote position and stated a salary within their range. HR says since I'm remote, she will have to offer $15k less. Wtf? I live in a high-cost coastal CA city. HR ends the interview saying they'll get in touch with me by end of week and that they don't ghost candidates, and they ended up ghosting me. How bizarre. I would never expect this from a company like Western Digital. HR seemed very inexperienced and unprofessional.
