The first round interview was a joke.

Interviewer was a junior, who asked questions for a junior role.

Did not take any system design, architecture, or documentation into consideration. Asked questions geared towards junior Android devs and fresh-out-of-school grad algorithm questions.

Interviewer themselves did not seem knowledgeable about advanced design concepts or patterns.

During the programming phase, the interviewer did not offer any help, nor did they understand deeper Java concepts. The interviewer themselves did not know the inner workings of any Java concept or even some of the basic Map functions.

This was their feedback for me:

"Needs to work on map functions and map hashing, and also better time management so next time you can complete the code review test."

Their expectation was a candidate who finishes both LeetCode questions with perfect accuracy within 30 minutes. I mean, this is ridiculous, right?
