SailPoint Technologies interview questions

I’m sure it is a nice company but best improving hiring process to respect candidates. Interviewer wasn’t attentive to my answers and then less than a minute after asked about visa and said they won’t sponsor. This could have been an email

I had a person reach out from Sailpoint after applying for a backend role. Come interview time, he immediately asks me really odd questions and is hostile/rude without even greeting me. His first question is who the mascot of my university, seven years ago, was. Then he asked me random things about where I used to live. He confesses that he didn't believe I was a real candidate and thought I was "AI". I thought maybe he'd be less rude now that he sees I'm a real person but come time for compensation, he asks me for an exact number and when I ask what the range is for the role he sighs and yells "THAT'S NOT WHAT I ASKED YOU. ANSWER ME FIRST!". Really odd screening experience. He says relay this over to the hiring manager. A few days go by and he emails me that the hiring manager thinks he can get by with a junior hire instead of a senior who will accept $90k. Then why post a senior role and interview for it? Is this a tactic to get candidates to accept a lower pay and title? Either this company uses shady tactics with rude recruiters to hire people OR the recruiter thought I was not real and just wanted to try and expose me but ended up wasting my time.
