The interviewer joins the zoom interview with a baseball hat on and keeps it on till the end. He spends 15 minutes explaining his role and what they are doing. At that point itself, I could guess he wasn't prepared for the interview, but this was set up a few days ago. Two others were supposed to joint but they never show up.
He asks me about myself and my projects. Then he starts confusing me about my own projects. I can see he wasn't prepared with questions. This goes on for 25 minutes. Finally, it is only 10 minutes to wrap up the interview. He asks about modeling a NoSQL datastore. At that time, someone else joins the interview too, and then the confusion goes to another level. I am confused if I have to speak or wait or what's happening. Then he comes back and asks me to continue, then someone else joins again. It was a mess, and the last 10 minutes was a disaster, which wasn't my fault.
I can see these guys don't seem to respect the process or the candidate's time. Some don't respect the process, and the one that attends seems to have no plans on how to execute it. wow!
