I'm referring to the "competition" post Resume, when they already reached out to you - "your profile is very attractive and would be a perfect fit for our role". They put you into their hiring process with a few other candidates who've also been selected carefully. I could bypass their stupid interview questions like you said, unfortunately, the other 2 or 3 candidates will play the game and one of them will get the job. They won't hire someone who doesn't follow the requirements. I could be their favorite pick, my 10 years of experience + a few products out in the world won't change much. They will pull out the "culture fit" card on you and you'll be out.
