The funniest part is when an apple/big tech recruiter contacts you, you get to explain your app's design choices during the interview process, they don't hire you and launch that competitor of yours.
- brookst 3y agoIf a big company is so bereft of design ideas they have a process to collect them from interview debrief and build them into product requirements, that company is dead. I'm very skeptical that ever happens. I'm sure that there have been times when someone mentioned design / arch / marketing strategies in an interview and later saw the same thing implemented, but I mean have have had multiple times in my life where I told nobody an idea and still saw it implemented somewhere else. Ideas are not half as unique as people like to think they are.
- herculity275 3y agoDoes this actually happen outside of Silicon Valley plotlines? I can't see a SWE interview debrief having enough detail to leak anything useful about a competitor that you wouldn't have gathered through common sense.
- est31 3y agoI've seen it mentioned multiple times here on this site, but I haven't remembered the link and don't really know how to search for it.
