There were a number of factors.
* There were several interviews by teams of people. One of them was the "beat down" team, although I don't think by design; that guy was just hard. A later interview said that he's known for that, not to take it personally, that he actually thought I did pretty well, and he's known internally as the "Kobyashi Maru" interview (for you Trek fans).
* I have a lot of years experience on my resume. I think I've become someone not with "X" years experience, but "X/3 years experience, repeated 3 times." That was the humbling/humiliating part; to have that realization.
* The interviews were for a particular role, and by people who had OTHER roles that needed filled. So I was being interviewed by people with needs other than what was advertised; they interview in such a way that if I wasn't a fit for the particular role (I wasn't), that I might be good elsewhere. So there's still hope for me at that company. We'll see.
