The interviewer kept asking about technologies not listed on my resume. When I provided solutions based on my expertise, they were not accepted. For instance, when asked how to share GBs of data with a customer, I suggested using an S3 presigned URL, but the interviewer either didn’t accept it or wasn’t familiar with S3. Instead, they expected a solution using Snowflake, which wasn’t part of my tech stack.

After a few more such questions, I mentally checked out. They also asked if I knew how to set up a reverse proxy—when I said no, they proceeded to ask about the use of Nginx, another technology not on my resume.

The interview standard has changed. Previously, interviews started with core concepts before moving to tech stack-specific questions. Now, you're expected to answer on stacks you haven't worked with.
