> scientists going to antarctica
I know someone who applied for a technical job based in antarctica and the interview process was much less arduous than the one described here.
- verzali 3y agoI applied to be an astronaut and that was only 5 or 6 rounds of interviews. Granted, you have a lot more invasive medical tests and being dunked upside down in swimming pools.
- tmpX7dMeXU 3y agoThat doesn’t sound nearly as bad as implementing quicksort on a whiteboard :)
- Arch-TK 3y agoIt actually sounds like fun in comparison to implementing anything on a whiteboard.
- sph 3y agoI'd rather all interview processes were like one of those funny Japanese game shows, rather than the dehumanisingly dull whiteboard interviee. I could see a dystopian sci-fi short story or Black Mirror episode with the same theme.
- kevin_thibedeau 3y agoIt depends where you're going. Villas Las Estrellas requires an appendix removal.
- philovivero 3y agoI'm assuming this is a joke of some sort?
- allan_s 3y agoNo he's not joking https://www.bbc.com/future/article/20180810-villas-las-estrellas-antarctica-base-residents-surgery https://www.bbc.com/future/article/20180810-villas-las-estre...
