Software Engineer Interview Experience

Process

On phone interview.

Very rude interviewer. Lacked basic people skills.

Needs training in how to conduct interviews.

This person's idea of an interview is to humiliate people.

When you ask a question, patiently listen. Understand what the person is saying. And if you have a suggestion, you can offer it politely.

At a minimum, attend Google's interview training. You are only giving the brand of the company a bad name with this behavior.

Questions

Projects you have worked on.
