Senior Software Engineer Interview Experience

Process

After a take-home test, I was scheduled for a virtual on-site interview.

I admit that I completely "screwed up" the technical and system design rounds. That's on me.

Then came the worst hour of my life: the behavioral round.

The interviewer was the worst I have ever encountered. He asked me questions you can only imagine. The only question he spared was, "Who was the midwife when you were born?"

It was so obvious that he was outright discriminating. From his LinkedIn profile, I could tell he isn't from here.

"C'mon, mate, you could have been a little gentler and nicer," I thought. It couldn't have been any worse than what I experienced.
