I applied via LinkedIn and received a message from the hiring manager in about a week. In the message, the hiring manager expressed being impressed with my background and requested a few dates and times for a 30 to 45-minute call. I confirmed that I would send an email to the provided address, specifying both dates and times that I would be available. However, nearly two weeks passed without any response from the hiring manager, neither via email nor on LinkedIn. When I followed up on LinkedIn, asking for feedback, I was informed that they had been waiting for the email I had promised to send. I promptly re-sent the email. The manager replied, asking if I had a UK work permit, to which I confirmed that I did. Then, I was asked once again if I had time for a Teams call. In response, I explained that I wouldn't be available for two weeks due to travel commitments and requested more information about the position and the remuneration package. The manager's response was a brief statement: "It depends on your skill level and work experience." Seeking further clarity and reminding the manager that my CV had been provided, I once again requested additional information. However, the final email from the manager accused me of being very pushy and rude.
