Tech Lead Interview Experience - Mumbai, India

Process

I applied through a recruiter. The process took 1 week.

I connected recruiter on LinkedIn (as he was in 1st degree connection). He did screening and then scheduled 1st interview. The guy who was taking interview was also a tech lead and I don't know why he is in interview panel. Interview lasted for 35mins, in which few mins he was late, few mins his intro, and few mins mine intro. Then he asked to explain any good project that I've done recently. Man, anyone can easily understand high level problem statemen in 2min, but he couldn't understand in 20 mins too.

I'm explaining abc, he is understanding xyz, totally different. I gave multiple examples, and analogies, and even wrote it on notepad to explain him, but he wasn't. I understood he is going to reject me, but I was expecting any technical question on basis of which he can reject. But he didn't ask a single question, and interview lasted in 35mins (instead of 1hr). A couple of days later, I got rejection mail. If he'd have selected, I'd have told that I don't want to proceed further, I don't want to work with such people. Only thing that attracted me here is "WFH" I've taken 200+ interviews and has given 100+ in my career, but this was the worst amongst all.
