Bro, why must interviews have to be such a pain in the ass?

[@bookercodes]

Thankfully companies are doing a lot better nowadays!

[@TechRally]

Hey that’s me! 👋 Awesome list of red flags 🚩!

[@bookercodes]

Alex, it's always a pleasure when you speak on a Space! Thanks a lot.

[@chasityd.8309]

I have experienced the power move you mentioned. The very last interview with the president of the company and this person made me wait for about 30-40 minutes just sitting in a room by myself. Then the person came in rushed and quickly asked me some bizarre questions like about my family history and exactly how many lines of code total have I written in the target language. Terrible experience. Definitely a red flag.

[@bookercodes]

I know I mentioned it in the video but this is STAGGERING to me! Sorry you had to experience that :(

[@BetYouHateMeNow]

depends on the role and it's actual requirement is how I respond to what's your current salary.

[@sanishchirayath4149]

first thing they ask during the interview or even before the interview is current ctc..Theynhave asked me to fill a form..that too a word document..They could have at least used a proper google form

[@bookercodes]

I don't like that at all 😢 Agree a form would be so much easier and respectful of your time.

[@yuiyukinoshita6604]

If someone ever makes me wait like 30min I'll just be coding in the meanwhile and make them wait like 2min after they arrive
