I'm starting to think these interviews are not about skill, but about resiliency. It filters out people with (occasional) physical/mental health issues, difficult/many kids or other difficult life situations etc. Which is fair I suppose, companies would prefer perfectly healthy 26 year-olds that can dedicate their life to the company without burning out.
- FinanceAnon 5y agoI think "resiliency" is a positive way of phrasing it. In my opinion, it's more of a case of checking if you can fit in and put up with corporate BS. I also doubt that companies are on purpose designing the interviews to be this long. It's probably more of the case of "more is better" thinking and no one being able to make a decision by themselves to streamline the process.
