Having some fun with the interviewers

I recently gave a technical interview and everything went well. I couldn't answer a couple of questions but I'd say it was a 95/100 if I had to rate it. No idea why I got rejected. HR has ghosted me. Fuck these interviewers and the HRs that manage these things. Entitled motherfuckers. When somebody doesn't qualify for a role, have the basic decency to write them a rejection email stating what they could've done better, or just a rejection email. It doesn't take that long.

I just finished an interview with ServiceNow for a senior software engineer role and writing this up. Anger rushed through my body after finishing the interview for multiple reasons. reasons: 1. The interviewer joined 10 minutes late and he was very lethargic. 2. The questions he asked regarding my current job were very basic and then I realized that he should be fresher or should have 2 - 3 years of experience. 3. After the interview I checked his profile on LinkedIn and he was a 2021 graduate (as I guessed). 4. I don't understand why an organization assigns software engineers (2.5 YOE) as interviewers for hiring a senior software engineer(8+ YOE). It doesn't make sense to me. 5. Then the interviewer asked a basic DSA question, and I gave him the solution, now he was not familiar with the Python language hence intrigued about the implementation of the heapify in Python. I explained to him how Heapify works but still, he could not understand what it is. 6. The part I got pissed off is the interviewer's attitude of him knowing everything. 7. The interview was scheduled for 1 hour and we went overtime, it's okay to go overtime by 5-10 minutes., But this guy is taking more than 20 minutes. He din't have basic ethics of valuing candidate's time. This is not my first interview with ServiceNow, this is my second and I had same feelings in the first interview as well. It's okay for me to not grab this opportunity, but think about someone who is really struggling to get a job during this tough time, because of the interviewer being lethargic. Hope ServiceNow focuses on their interviewing system and improves it.

I attended one interview today. The interview went only for 11mins and as a courtesy the interviewer should introduce himself before he starts interviewing I found a big gap here. I decided not to continue with the interview further due to below reasons; 1. The interview was a one way video call where I was feeling awkward as I was not able to see other person's face and was talking in the air. 2. I was asked why did I apply for this role which is a Senior role and I have no experience in handling a managerial role of team handling? 2. I found the way I bombarded with the questions from the starting was very unprofessional and somewhere I felt embarrassed. 3. I was asked by the interviewer to check with the HR/Recruiter why he/she has shortlisted me ? My answer for the 2nd question was as follows; I am having 9yrs of experience and I found the responsibilities mentioned in JD are suitable and I have the skills of handling the role confidently, I do not see anywhere in Required skills it is mentioned that the candidate has a mandatory team handling experience required to apply for this role. Candidates can apply for any role he/she finds suitable and no one can stop them applying. I have applied for this role as I found it suitable but if this was not suitable for me why did my resume get shortlisted and called for a VC interview and wasted my time

Folks ,I have been on panel for almost 10 years with few prominent pointers about interview tips to follow : 1) Never EXAGGERATE yourself 2) Don't get PERSONAL with panel 3) Be honest to say NO for not knowing anything, instead of blabbering 4) Be precise in your response , Start with fundamental understanding of the question and then present the case you worked on What is your experience on the above ?

Which company did you have the worst interview experience with?

I cleared all 6 rounds of a PM interview with an Edtech startup. The HR asked for current offer letter, 2 references (current and previous manager), and a couple of other docs. Then ghosted me for 2 weeks. When I followed up, the HR said they are in-process of interviewing other candidates Is it normal to do this now a days? I understand the company wants to interview more people. But then why ask for any details from me till you are sure that you are going to give an offer

I am a 2YOE software engineer, and I wanted to make a switch. Having a grip on DSA but can't rely on it. I am seeing a good number of folks getting into start ups get paid well too. Can someone comment on startups that are paying well but require less grinding. Open for comments and views. Thanks
