I had an initial phone screen followed by a virtual onsite. I thought I did fairly okay in the onsite, but one of the interviewers seemed super smug and discouraging. They straight up told me that I don't have the experience required for the role. This was a coding interview, and they were almost disappointed to see that I was able to solve the question. Why interview someone and waste their time if you don't think they have the required experience?

I never heard back from the recruiter, even after sending a reminder email. It was a bitter experience overall.
