tulip topaz Sep 26, 2022, 6:46 PM

#

#

the guy was super rude and basically interrogating me for 45 min before saying “ok bye we’ll be in touch soon”

swift patrol Sep 26, 2022, 6:49 PM

#

tulip topaz the guy was super rude and basically interrogating me for 45 min before saying “...

#

tulip topaz the guy was super rude and basically interrogating me for 45 min before saying “...

the fuck why do they do that? like you got all the way to final rounds and they treat you like that

tulip topaz Sep 26, 2022, 6:53 PM

#

swift patrol Interrogating?

yes just rapid Question to question, no acknowledgement of my answers as even good or bad, he shook his head slightly a few times

#

I think he thinks the project I talked about was too simple. He kept dumbing it down

swift patrol Sep 26, 2022, 6:54 PM

#

tulip topaz yes just rapid Question to question, no acknowledgement of my answers as even go...

Questions about your resume?

tulip topaz Sep 26, 2022, 6:54 PM

#

No, technical questions while i talked about my project

swift patrol Sep 26, 2022, 6:54 PM

#

Oh gotcha just talked about that one project

gilded delta Sep 26, 2022, 6:55 PM

#

😦

tulip topaz Sep 26, 2022, 6:55 PM

#

Like bro why are you asking me about caching and load balancing it’s just a front end project

gilded delta Sep 26, 2022, 6:56 PM

#

cuz he's a bitchass

#

😄

tulip topaz Sep 26, 2022, 6:56 PM

#

He’s been at bloomberg for 20 years

gilded delta Sep 26, 2022, 6:56 PM

#

bruh

tulip topaz Sep 26, 2022, 6:56 PM

#

gilded delta Sep 26, 2022, 6:57 PM

tulip topaz Sep 26, 2022, 7:05 PM

#

I don’t know yet, I just finished

#

Probably not

#

The dude was shaking his head

tulip topaz Sep 26, 2022, 7:05 PM

#

swift patrol Ain't no way lmao

it’s stupid

swift patrol Sep 26, 2022, 7:06 PM

#

tulip topaz it’s stupid

This is what people must mean when they said they got system design in EM

#

Got unlucky

tulip topaz Sep 26, 2022, 7:21 PM

#

tbh i just don’t know any of it so have to blame myself I guess. I don’t think bsing with this guy woulda worked cause he was listing all the stuff he worked on and that shit sounded complicated asf

mental lark Sep 26, 2022, 7:55 PM

#

how do you explain ned not getting it then

#

dude fuck bloomberg

tulip topaz Sep 26, 2022, 8:08 PM

#

mental lark how do you explain ned not getting it then

I mean Hr asked me if i had other offers and I said yes, but they still put me onto EM

mental lark Sep 26, 2022, 9:37 PM

#

#

suck to be dumb

lmfao same

bleak osprey Sep 26, 2022, 9:44 PM

#

im pretty sure they just didnt want to waste time trying to negotiate with akuna

#

also unless the interviewer is some snake, you can tell if it went well

#

they'll just act happy

#

usually if i hear "you'll hear back pretty soon" it means i passed

#

and if they say "good luck on the rest of your interviews" it means i failed

mental lark Sep 26, 2022, 10:15 PM

#

your ass doesn't deserve my humility

random breach Sep 27, 2022, 3:05 AM
