1. Normal recruiter interview 2. Hiring Manager Interview 3. Technical Interview Nearly every step of this process put a bad taste in my mouth. The initial recruiting interview was fine, but afterwards I was led through the next step by a different recruiter each time. I got a completely different description of the job at each stage of the process - it felt like they didn't know what they were hiring for. Hiring manager interview was talking about your past experience, with some technical questions sprinkled in. Technical Interview - I selected the interview difficulty as "Difficult" because there was no option for "weird". The technical interview was the strangest interview experience I've had in a long time. First, when scheduling with the recruiter, I gave availability dates across two separate days and multiple times but was asked to move up to earlier in the week. It was pretty inflexible and definitely an inconvenience for me. Then, the interviewer was completely unprepared and had to take time to go over the last guy's notes. He restated Auth0's policy of no live coding/ no whiteboarding, said we'd dive into a scenario instead, and then proceeded to open up.... an editor. He said he would be typing, not me. In my experience, the person interviewing usually gets to pick their language, but that was not the case here. I had talked in the previous interview about my coding strengths and weaknesses, and had mentioned that I did not like and did not want to work with the language that they gave me in the technical interview. I tried to ask scoping questions about the scenario but didn't really get much back to work with. I also showed one of my projects on GitHub to demonstrate that I would indeed know how to do this in my own language, and he complimented my code but asked if I wrote it all by myself (it wasn't a massive project and I had already said that I wrote it). Didn't really know what to think about that. I feel like I should have just ended the interview. Any time I asked culture and diversity questions, it got very awkward. People stumbled through answers and then gave the generic "we value diversity and inclusion" response. So, obviously I did not selected, and I got sent a nice generic email from a no-reply address after all that.
