I was in the 3rd round. The interviewer was a techie and, no doubt, he is going to be a good asset to Palo Alto Networks.

However, the interview was not smooth. He made me nervous, like a student facing a viva. He wasn't even smiling a bit. I was actually waiting for that hour to end, and it felt like it was over within 20-30 minutes.

Instead of testing my skills that would help the organization or team, he started testing his skills on me. All of it was irrelevant to the role or the work.

He did not want what I wanted to explain; rather, he wanted me to explain what he had in mind. Whatever I could say, he had to either deny it or he skipped the question until I said I was not sure.

This was the worst interview I've attended recently. I've been rigorously trying to switch jobs and have attended interviews with many good companies. I can confidently say this was the worst!
