“Maybe I came off as easily offended and irritable in the original thread, but I’m actually a pretty mellow guy,” the OP says. “Those were the only two times I actually got irritated by my interviewer while simultaneously feeling like I was in the right.” theawesumelf , Emmanuel Ikwuegbu Report

“We spent a good 10 minutes talking about the guy and his paintings, it was great. In the end though, I didn’t get the job. It was for a senior role, and I had just finished my internship,” Slumi noted. “But the interviewer decided to let me know through a phone call, all while specifying ‘I’m sorry. I want you to know that you actually did extremely well during the interview. But we found someone more senior.’” MamaMeRobeUnCastillo , Tima Miroshnichenko Report

“This used to be a very dynamic field that was constantly evolving, because text is a messy data type and you can do a lot of different things with it. But with the arrival of state-of-the-art models that can be used out of the box like ChatGPT, my skill set has become less valuable,” he explained. dahl019 , Ono Kosuki Report

“Keep in mind though, I live in Switzerland. I don’t know how widespread this data science hiring trend is,” he added. “But I know that the big tech companies in the US have laid off a fair amount of employees right now, so I wouldn’t be surprised if the competition there had gotten fiercer too.” skeeter72 , Anna Shvets Report

“Both are incredibly painful in their own way. The project because it’s disrespectful of your time, and leetcode questions because they’re so irrelevant to 99% of what your work will actually consist of,” Slumi says. “They can also be very difficult, which is why people who apply at FAANG literally learn hundreds of such problems by heart only to regurgitate them during their job interviews." “There are also companies that ask you to work for them, possibly for free, for a few days (or weeks) before they can evaluate if you’re a good match,” the OP continued. “That one should be straight up illegal. Thankfully it’s not that common.” InternationalWolf437 , nappy Report

“For the second [interview story I shared] (the financial company), I had spent 8 hours or so of my free time coding in the way they said they preferred in order to leave a good impression. So to then be told ‘Hmmm why did you code in the way you asked you to? You shouldn’t have done that’ did not sit well with me,” the OP says. MusicalWalrus Report

I feel for you. But it could also look very different from the other perspective. Maybe (example) the recruiter was just genuinely interested and trying to build a picture, but the candidate had an ego problem and immediately perceived a threat and acted accordingly. Which made it awkward for all. I guess we’ll never know. CurryChickenBun Report
