I hope that more employers start to value other skills in additional to technical skills. It’s absurd to me that you can be a successful software engineer, but will likely be unable to land a new job without dedicating time to brushing up on Leetcode-style programming questions. Investing time on this won’t make you better at your current job and as simply a gatekeeping exercise.
- bogota 3y agoYeah it’s pretty stupid but everyone is willing to play the game since we all need to eat. I did drop out of Facebooks interview process right after the recruiter told me i need to come up with a better reason why i wanted to work at facebook for the next interview. I told them i thought they were going a little too far and I didn’t want to work at a company that was that full of themselves.
- selimthegrim 3y agoI had a Snap recruiter say I wasn’t excited enough about a C++ job writing cat filters for me to interview with the team - when she had promised to send me a link to their Lens Studio stuff to evaluate but never did. What was I supposed to do, don cat ears over the phone? Mind you this was the day after they laid off 10% of the company.
