There is a lot of irrational tradition built into the hiring process. There are a lot of unknowns and there is a fair amount of risk in hiring people.
When faced with this risk, people fall back to pattern matching and asking the questions they think they’re supposed to ask. People can’t actually glean much from your resumé so they form there questions around what they can.
My advice would be to come up with a canned response that reflects well on what you’re trying to say and doesn’t spook anyone. Trust me they aren’t thinking that hardly about any of this. They’re just scared of messing up.
For further actions, you may consider blocking this person and/or reporting abuse
