Engineering Manager Interview Experience

Neutral ExperienceNo Offer

Process

I applied through a recruiter. The process took 4 weeks.

Did the full round, till the panel. It was all positive until the rejection, which I got no explanation for. They take their culture round very seriously. Do prep and go in drinking the kool-aid.

Questions

What is your reaction if I say, our CEO dreams a future where AI overlords take over? Wording was obviously different, but the gist was there.
