I first spoke with the recruiter, who sounded miserable and almost as if he wanted me to drop out. I went ahead anyway out of curiosity. He arranged an interview with the founder for 1 pm, just after lunch. When the founder joined he was 10 mins late, he seemed in a hurry to get it over with, sounded uninterested, and raised major red flags, especially when describing the company’s tech stack and how everything worked. Overall, it was possibly the worst interview experience I’ve ever had, and I’ve had quite a few.
