This has to be one of the worst interviews ever. The interviewer was interviewing me, sitting on a sofa in a common area, and it was loud and distracting. Because he was sitting on the sofa, his laptop was on his lap, and only the bottom left half of his face was in the camera the entire time.
He started the interview by shooting about 20 simple, knowledge-based questions at me, then proceeded to ask about my experiences.
