Software Engineer Interview Experience

Process

I had a quick call with the recruiter, followed by a 1.5-hour interview over video chat using an outdated editor that was difficult to use.

The recruiter seemed nice; however, the interviewer was terrible. He first asked me some very language-specific questions, which I found ridiculous since any competent person could look up what a var is in JavaScript on Google.

The worst part, however, came when the interviewer asked me the first coding question, which he didn't explain well at all. When I asked clarifying questions, he started to laugh, and this was during a video chat interview. That was downright disrespectful and truly indicative of their culture.

The interview just went downhill from there, and I did not receive an offer.
