  Hired left and right != interviewed left and right != interviewed quite a few at Crowdstrike. Maybe you’re contributing to the narrative with the posts like above. It’ll certainly drive engagement.

  > My favorite interview question, because we've interviewed quite a few of these folks, is something to the effect of 'How fat is Kim Jong Un?' They terminate the call instantly I'm sure there were a lot of false positives with that question. If I was not reading HN and a few other sources I would likely hang up the phone too. Thinking that it couldn't be a real job,... some phishing scam or hoax, asking ridiculous questions like that. Depending on the job, it is quite likely the real talent would not be able to take the interview seriously after hearing suck a question. Seriously weird times...

    That's actually hilarious. Edit: Oops, accidentally responded to you instead of original quote.

  > How fat is Kim Jong Un Ha if I got asked that during an interview, I'd think either I went to the wrong interview or the interview is a red flag.

    In crypto has become a known joke to ask that before hiring bc NK state actors really are focsuesd on it and hacking companies etc.
