> Consistent lack of interest or low morale from interviewers
This one in particular pisses me off, especially if it’s late in the interviewing cycle. I interviewed with a certain YC startup recently and it was a long form programming exercise with two observers watching me work without really interacting much, where one of them was not even paying attention at all for their time (I know because they told me they were “rushing to get code out right now haha”). Come on, seriously? They rejected me because I didn’t do a good enough job I guess, or was deemed a poor culture fit idk, hope they found the “rockstar” they were after!
- TheSpiceIsLife 6y agoYou should have pulled your phone out part way through the interview exercise and pretended to remote in to your Single Dev Start-up Environment and pretended to hot fix a bug or deploy more resources...
