What are your worst interviews you’ve done? I’m currently going through them myself and want to hear what others are like. Dijkstras algorithm on the whiteboard? Binary Search? My personal favorite “I don’t see anything wrong with your architecture, but I’m not a fan of X language/framework so I have to call that out”

Let me hear them!

(Non programmers too please jump in with your horrid interviews, I’m just very fed up with tech screens)

    “Well we just want a big pool of candidates in case this person doesn’t work out.”

    Those companies can get a building dropped on them. Cannot tell you how many positions I’ve applied for only to be told “oh we filled that two months ago and didn’t take the listing down”.
