Data Engineer Interview Experience - San Francisco, California
Process
I had a call with the hiring manager.
She called in a few minutes later and was hardly audible with a bad accent. She wasn't interested in listening and interrupted constantly. She seemed uninterested in hiring and had a bad attitude.
I've heard great things about Chime, but a few people can make it a bad experience.
Questions
Questions should be relevant. If a candidate isn't a match, reject them after reviewing their resume, rather than asking "Do you know this?" which can be discouraging.
