> I know I'm vastly more concerned about being a good dad than I am about writing efficient code > Also, you KNOW these interview processes are bullshit Man does this speak to me. I know I’m a good software developer (even if I’m not amazing). I was never computer science trained but I’ve never had problems on the frontend, backend, mobile apps, etc… not saying I know everything but I know my domain inside out. I was approached by a Google recruiter and thought “what the hell” and started the process. Before I knew it I had five interviews queued up and the recruiter advised me to read a book on Google’s tech interviewing practises to make sure I pass. I don’t have time for that. I don’t want to have time for that, I have other priorities in life. The process seems very much optimised for new college grads with time to burn. I won’t work at Google, so be it. But much less secure single, no kids, 20-something me would be horrified by having to accept that.
