There is absolutely no basis for that claim in this particular case. I'd expect them to ask all candidates if they understand the scenario, regardless of sex. But guess what? We have absolutely no idea because there is no data on it. As such, it is totally unjustified to call an employer "belittling and sexist" purely because they asked a single candidate if they understood something related to their code challenge.
- tomlock 12y agoIt is quite interesting to me that you say we don't know what we'd expect the interviewers to do in this scenario. The applicant didn't either (and they state that), and in this case, the interviewer's lack of knowledge about the applicant's possible perceptions betrayed a lack of sensitivity to such topics. This was a red flag.
