raminasi posted:they demanded i come in and talk to them in person to get a sense of what i was looking for. i've had good experiences doing this, but their little interview was formulaic and weird. (like, for each thing on my resume they made me tell them what % of it was "development" and what % was "architecture.") they then submitted me for a role i was unqualified for and had no interest in. me and the company screener had a lol about it but then workbridge got mad and ghosted me. my time would have been better spent playing video games in my underwear. interesting. i just bailed on working with them again (didn't want to do that first time get to know ya chat when i was winding down my search) but i worked with em in the past and i got that ghosting you mentioned about 4 years ago when i whiffed on a few interviews i always thought it was cause i kinda bitched at their rep after i did an interview where they never even received or asked about a ~4 hour code exercise i did

I’m gonna see if I can get them to change the wording to “candidates must donate six months of unpaid labor” i got taken for a ride on this recently now i read this thread a lot

i had an interview today that i think went well, but drat do i hate whiteboarding the problem was to talk thru an integer stack that had push, pop, and max functions, where max returned the highest integer in the stack, and then optimize it i tend to create a naive solution for things and then optimize, and i suck at whiteboarding the optimization because im chronically bad at thinking academic-technically when under a microscope, and the result is that i always reach the dumbass cs100 solution for something and then get prodded towards a more elegant one. i hate this sideshow routine where i have to demonstrate specific skills that won't have an impact on my day to day

qirex posted:there's certain companies that people who are desperate to quit wherever they are end up at, walmart.com is a big one around here, I know so many people who were there for a year or less just to regroup from a really bad job. I think they just have a really streamlined process and will take a chance on someone who seems pretty good are you in AR? i spent some time there (not working for walmart) and literally everyone in my sphere either came from walmart or eventually went there
