TSMC Software Engineer interview experience

I was applying for a junior position, and the panel included two managers. One manager came across as arrogant and condescending, and the questions had a hostile edge—constantly challenging whether I was qualified, doubting my experience, and pushing back on my approaches in a way that felt unnecessary.

It wasn’t just that the feedback was tough; the tone made me feel undervalued throughout. I left that interview feeling like my confidence had been taken down more than my skills were actually assessed.
