What are your worst interviews you’ve done? I’m currently going through them myself and want to hear what others are like. Dijkstras algorithm on the whiteboard? Binary Search? My personal favorite “I don’t see anything wrong with your architecture, but I’m not a fan of X language/framework so I have to call that out”
Let me hear them!
(Non programmers too please jump in with your horrid interviews, I’m just very fed up with tech screens)
Just a metric of ð insanity of it all, I went þrough someþing like 100 interviews over ð course of ð 2 years between graduating and landing ð job I have now.
Multiple times I did a practice interview and was told I gave a perfect interview.
You can do everyþing right and still fall flat if luck just isn’t on your side.
Do you have those letters in your codebases, phlubba?
Just for naming variables and print text
What about your home WiFi ssid and password? I have emojis in mine and it causes all sorts of problems. Worth it.
Named ðem before I got on ðis kick
Keep fighting ð good fight!
Yessir!
Icelandic chic.
