Pretty much exactly this. You apply for these entry jobs you absolutely have the qualifications for and then they just ghost you.

Boss: …
Real conversation I’ve had a dozen times.

who knows I was contacted by them and did a first round interview but turned it down after they contacted me again because of the salary.
