If Anthropic hiring is indicative of a world with artificial intelligence, it will be a sad world indeed.

First, you receive an invitation to complete a CodeSignal screening problem. The e-mail is sent from an automated service. If you score less than perfect, you will receive an automated rejection letter (so it seems).

If you pass, you move onto a hiring manager screen. This is the first time you get to meet a human being.

If you pass, you move onto four 55-minute interviews with 5-minute breaks. Three are technical, one is a personality study. None of them seem to care much about your past experience or expertise; no one will ask.

That's where it ends for me. I received a generic rejection letter from a person I had never met or talked to, letting me know "it was great meeting you".

I understand they must be inundated with applications. And I will have to accept that most of the working world is moving away from a human touch.

Screener: 4-part question.

Interview 1: 2-part data mutation question.
