The recruiter’s response thoroughly upset him.
“I was like you slid into my DMs. I get to pick things; you want me, I don’t want you. I am fine with my company– granted, I will hear offers. But if you are not going to give me something to leave, why would I leave?” the man said.
He also explained how, after bringing this up, recruiters would often try to gaslight him– claiming he is not worth his salary ask.
“That is always interesting to me because I am already making what you are offering me. You want me to leave? You have to offer more,” the TikToker underscored.
His video resonated with nearly five hundred thousand viewers and gained over fifty thousand likes. Much of the TikTok community related to the often negative experiences recruiters provide potential applicants.
“200% facts,” commented one user.
“I love when they reach out about roles that are very obviously lower compensated. Look, unless it is at LEAST a fifteen percent increase, we are not talkin’!” wrote another user.
“When the next recruiter that does this to me again, I am sending them this TikTok,” joked a third.
