To me the problem with recruitment process in this industry is that you're experience and background are totally irrelevant and you are evaluated exactly as a just out of college fellow: all that matters is how you perform on that whiteboard test on that particular question in that particular day. That is the unfair part of it. Moreover the junior may even have advantage over you: he costs less.
