I had two separate interviews. The initial interview was a friendly, casual chat about my past experiences and motivation. This was a great talk, which gave me an even stronger interest in the role.

The second interview, a technical test, was not so great. They asked me to provide times I would be free to conduct the interview, of which I provided several. They never replied and instead emailed me the exact time I had put as my first available slot, saying they were ready to conduct the interview immediately.

I was taken aback by the lack of respect for my time and the poor communication. However, I was fortunately in a place where I could conduct the interview, and the process continued.

The interview itself was not conducted well either. The questions were very open and general, but the interviewer was looking for a specific answer that constituted only a minor section of the topic inquired about. The interviewer also did not possess good enough English abilities, making the questions harder to understand. When asked for clarification, little help was given.

Finally, the interviewer asked, with an accusing voice halfway through, whether or not I was alone, undoubtedly wondering whether I was cheating. One of the worst, most disrespectful interviews I have ever had.

Talk about Object-Oriented Programming.
