I have stopped mentioning frontend performance being my speciality on interviews as it has elicited tepid responses from all but one.

  I imagine interviewing at McMaster-Carr to be a very different experience than Home Depot.

    But also Apple, and Uber, etc. It was surprising.

      (My joke was that McMaster's website is one of the fastest in the world, and Home Depot's is one of the slowest.)

        I'm well aware! :) McMaster-Carr's perf story is legendary, and is frequently cited as inspiration by other companies. I've actually done deep dives on both (Home Depot has other good qualities). ...Yet companies you'd think would be similarly obsessed with FE perf are, at least in the hiring stage, totally nonplussed by that background. C'est la vie.
