I got an email from a recruiter. After a couple of emails, we set up a time for a phone interview with one of the senior members in the quality team. The interviewer had a strong accent and sounded drunk. He was probably not ready for the interview, asking the same questions, and I had to repeat myself again and again. He was probably not willing to talk, either. He didn't introduce himself and didn't give a clue what exactly his team does or anything about the job. He asked a few basic questions on HTML tags, jQuery, and the HTTP protocol, like why a tag is needed or why a protocol is needed, which are very stupid questions related to the SDET role, I believe. I already said initially that I don't have any SDET experience, still he asked (or gave a statement, not sure): "So you don't have any SDET experience?" The same again: "So you don't know Python/Perl?"
Don't remember, don't want to remember.
