That bs seemed more common in the early days of remote. Now I (and most I’ve talked to in my network) ask the recruiter up front about the interview process.

That bs seemed more common in the early days of remote. Now I (and most I’ve talked to in my network) ask the recruiter up front about the interview process. This BS is a non starter. I had to do a presentation to a huge group on why I’d be a good fit followed by 3 hours of group interviews. This was after a tech screen and a fairly intense live coding tech interview. I’d never do that again unless it’s for my “dream” job. I got that job but it was nothing special. I then had to sit in on these as senior eng I had to be part of the hiring committee. Such a time sink for all involved.
