Process

Great conversation with a super nice and interesting recruiter followed by Tech phone screen. Interviewer (sitting on the bed): Hi, I just saw your resume; it looks like you can't code. Me: Hi... What? Interviewer: Yeah, let me give you my easiest one. Me: What do you mean? Interviewer: Have you heard about LeetCode? Me: What do you mean, why? Interviewer: Oh, you never heard? Well, you probably don't know how to code. ... Interview, me coding, kids are screaming in the background, him being rude. ... End of the interview: Interviewer: Do you have any more questions? Me: I have a lot of questions, but since you haven't introduced yourself and I have no idea who you are, I'm not sure what kind of questions I can ask. Interviewer: It's fine, bye. Please, everyone, judge it by yourself after reading this :) In my opinion, the interview made the company seem like an unfriendly place to work. Glad I didn't waste a lot of my time.
