Process

I applied online. The process took four months.

There were rude interviewers who were underprepared and fighting between each other during the interview. The process was very slow, easily spanning multiple months. The HR person who guides you through it might even misdescribe stages of the process. It was such a subpar execution of an interview process that I was left wondering whether they are actively trying to push people away.

Questions

How would you design an API for this, but first tell me about different paging mechanisms, but first describe the UX as you intend it, but first tell me about database indexes? I won't let you finish a phrase. I will ask exactly the same 3 minutes from now.
