Technical Coding Behavioral
This review is being written honestly, even without a confirmed offer or rejection. The interviewer was condescending and made sarcastic remarks. They asked me to turn on my camera but didn't have theirs on, which felt untrustworthy. They asked basic SQL and Python questions and weren't receptive to different answers. They stated my experience was irrelevant.
Confirmed questions2 questions
- Could you answer some basic SQL questions?
- Could you answer some basic Python questions?
