Just venting it out Two people interviewing me at same time taking turns to ask questions. Interview1: Tell me about your background and I don't want to know about the team or product, just tech stack. Interviewer 1 : Some questions on kafka Me : Gave elaborate answer Interviewer 1 : (in rudest possible way) Don't give such lengthy answers. keep it short okay? Interviewer 2 : How would you scale producer? me : gave some crap answer Interview 2 : You keep on talking about it but I am asking you something else. (Keeps miss pronouncing my name) Interviewer 1 : These are the basic annotations you should know. Interview 2 : I feel you did more manager role and less coding. Me : okay Interviewer 1 : We don't have much time, let's do rapid fire round. These are just few examples - overall the negativity was throughout the interview. What a waste of everyone's time. Even if I had answered all questions correctly, there is no way I would join this jpcrap #jpmorganchase #jpmorgan TC : $285k (base $170k+cash bonus) Yoe: 12
Shame on them
Yep, I know this exact feeling. Recruiter was cool, but a guy in London interviewed me and a guy in NYC. Both were d-bags. I withdrew my application after the second round.
Not sure if Wall Street is right for you
Lol, I would have laughed in their face within 5 minutes and ended the call. Don’t tolerate shit from trash people. Move on to the next unless you really need experience working in adversarial settings.
Run
JPCrap 😂
What level is this for?
Sr software developer
Treating a senior swe candidate this way is wild. Fwiw, you can do much better. Fuck em
Sorry to ask but were they from the subcontinent? Even I had a very bad exp with fidelity. Really very condescending tone. My friend was asked a database question to calculate transactions in between 3 tables(it’s a hard problem) and he is a data scientist. The interviewer outright told him not to waste his time if he didn’t know the answer. Not the best way to treat a human being tbh
True. There is a sense of entitlement amount older folks as to how this other managed to come here.
its a disgusting attitude , i have always had worst experiences with desi interviewers . Rarely have had one or two good ones . But we should change that , we shouldnt continue the same .
Don’t make such lengthy posts keep it short okay?
Hahahaha
You keep on laughing about it but I am asking you something else.
not surprising. mediocre people try to assert their power in such interviews.
