chuckle I don't know if that is true or not, but what I do know is true is that he isn't the same person they thought they interviewed---because technical interviews these days bear no relationship to the kinds of qualities actually needed for the job. Even him being inconsistent about whether he was married or not makes perfect sense if you think about it this way: it's actually illegal to ask a candidate whether they are married or not, and for a good reason: married ones are discriminated against. Given 10 equally good candidates, why not pick the one with no home responsibilities, whose wife won't carp about relocating, etc etc. Note, I described it as "making perfect sense" not as "being the right thing to do." Personally, its a line I wouldn't cross, but man, its BRUTAL out there right now, and in this post-truth world we are now living in, you know that chances are the company isn't being straight-up about absolutely every aspect of what its like working their either. I can understand if an applicant approached the process not as giving testimony in court, but more like a poker game, where bluffing is an integral part of the process.
