Based on my experience interviewing (both as a candidate as as a non-boss watching my coworkers interview), it makes me want to start my own business so I can get some great people at a bargain price. When my employer was interviewing, the two strongest candidates failed their interview process, and they hired one of the weakest candidates.
However, I don't fit the profile for VC, so the only way I can get to that point is by bootstrapping.
- autokad 11y agoa lot of those interviews are perplexing. they ask people questions that took people with PHD's years to figure out and expect them to figure it out in minutes/hours. either they are repeating something from memory or they aren't going to figure it out, either way it doesn't tell you anything about how they are as an employee.
- fsk 11y agoMost of these interview questions can be summarized as 1. Have you heard this question before? or 2. What number am I thinking of? I.e., any answer other than the one the interviewer is expecting is wrong. I had a recent interview with some SQL/Linux questions. I gave a correct answer, but one that wasn't on the interviewer's script. He wasn't able to accept my answer as correct. So I'm left trying to guess what answer the interviewer is expecting.
