Senior Software Engineer Interview Experience

Process

I was working in a multi-billion dollar organization and was looking for a change. I was impressed with their AI background and applied for an interview.

I have been in the Bay Area for some time now, but this was the worst experience I have ever had. The interviewer asked me a question to solve, and from there, the interviewer seemed to be in his own world.

During the interview process, I kept explaining my solution. Towards the end, the interviewer mentioned that this was not the question. So, throughout the process, the interviewer was in some other world and did not even look at or listen to what I coded or explained.

I clearly can't understand why there was even an interview then.

If you are already working in a reputed organization, just avoid this and don't waste your time interviewing here.

C3.ai, please improve your interview process. This is not how you should treat people who are interviewing. Respect the time of those interviewing, or at least ask your engineers to coordinate during the interview activity. Sorry to say, it was a very bad experience.
