I interviewed at Adzerk

- nickstinemates 13y agoInteresting choice to use pastebin instead of the built in text submission. Sometimes things just don't work out. It sounds like you had a good experience, but the end result wasn't what you'd hoped for. That happens. Best of luck on whatever comes next.
- martindale 13y agoAdzerk is a world-class team, between Nate, James, and the amazing people they've brought on board (it sounds like you met Patrick, too!). I wouldn't take any rejection personally; the opportunity to be interviewed there is validating enough.
- jdubs 13y agoGood people have bad days!
- agilebyte 13y agoWhen you asked people at Adzerk the questions you mention at the bottom of the paste, what did they say?
- hoka 13y agoI ran into something similar interviewing at an NYC lab; loved the culture, loved the pre-screening interview, team was great, did well at the interview, didn't get the offer. I couldn't be happier at my current job, however. Just have to roll with the punches! It's a little Bioshock-y, but I'm a firm believer that regardless of where you are, things will end up pretty similarly.
- alexholehouse 13y agoI don't mean to be rude, but why is this on HN? I mean, there's nothing wrong with it and its a nice read, but, I dunno, haven't we all had experiences like this? Is there some broader context I'm missing?
- lnanek2 13y agoA little strange to interview for a position that isn't open and then feel rejected when they reply they aren't going to create an opening for you. That would be the expected answer, I'd think.
