This was probably the worst interview experience I ever had. By the end, I was so annoyed that I didn't bother to ask any questions.

All three interviewers came unprepared.

• Interviewer 1: Could not explain the problem statement, even after I asked and verified multiple times. I had to change my algorithm three times.
• Interviewer 2: Kept cutting me off during a system design. They gave minimal requirements but still insisted my approach was wrong.
• Interviewer 3: Kept going back and forth on the requirements. They wanted the backend to drive the UI. Were they serious?

All three interviewers were looking for the only solution they knew to the problem, and any other approach was deemed incorrect. A bit arrogant, if you ask me.
