Very strange experience. After an initial phone screening, I met with two HR recruiters at their offices in Overland Park. I brought along my portfolio to show them writing samples. Both recruiters acted as though I'd committed an unspoken faux pas by inviting them to look through it. The rest of the interview progressed and, overall, it felt as though they were fulfilling some sort of quota by asking me in. That is strange given by color and gender.
