I really like working on a project for 5-8 years at a time and really building tools to make the system run smoother and reliably. It really has backfired, I'm out of touch in the latest interviewing fads and I think hiring managers wonder what's wrong with me rather than thinking I'll be a good hire.

- ChrisMarshallNY 5y agoI just stopped looking for work. I got tired of being insulted, right off the bat. Too bad. I could have been an awesome hire, for a number of these companies; especially the smaller ones. I'm not "behind the times," at all, and would have been happy with far less compensation than most. It was funny, these little shops were doing the same kinds of interviews as major-league FAANGs, even though their workflows and requirements (and pay) were drastically different. I guess it's a case of "Monkey see; monkey do."
