RE: Those interviewing at Lambda (rejected)
Luck of the draw with who decides to interview you, I had a guy from the admissions team with zero enthusiasm essentially just reading off of a list of questions. I tried to answer well but giving off good energy from a dead duck is hard. I also was more practical with my answers of wanting to get into coding, jump in profession, curious, experience as a BA, writing technical docs and general data analysis. Each response by the interview was simply: "hmmm ok." Rejected around ten minutes after my TEN minute call. PS tell them you love coding, live and breathe it, etc.
- t0mmycollison 8y agoHey there -- this isn't right, and I'd love to know more about what happened. Do you mind emailing me with more details? I'm tommy@lambdaschool.com
- alkibiades 8y agohuh, didn't know there was another collison brother. you guys are like the weasleys.
- austenallred 8y agoYes, the third brother isn’t quite as successful as the other two, who are brilliant. He works at a payments company in San Francisco.
- paxy 8y agoThis is standard tech recruiting even outside of Lambda
- hiei 8y agoIf it were an HR screening I would agree but I think there is some responsibility on the interviewer to remain engaged.
