United StatesPosted Feb 2024 · Candidate report, summarized by Dataford

I was scheduled for a 45-minute interview with the hiring manager of a cloud infrastructure team connected to a dual application involving cloud gateway and service communication.

The interview started awkwardly because the interviewer joined late.

Once they were on, the experience felt tense. They came across as judgmental, and during my responses they seemed to spend more time making rude facial expressions than actually listening. I also had to restate parts of my answers multiple times because they didn’t pick up on what I’d already said.

I didn’t move forward from that interview. The overall difficulty wasn’t only technical—it was the way the conversation was managed that made it hard to do my best.
