After a few successful short phone interviews, I was summoned to a concentrated interview day with quite a few people that were related to the role to which I was interviewing.
Overall, the interview process was OK, logistics were taken care of properly, etc.
Most of the people which interviewed me were very nice, professional and asked relevant questions.
A couple of issues which I have noticed:
- It doesn't seem like the interviewers were sync'd with each other; there were a lot of overlapping questions and it was obvious that the latter interviewers were not filled in on the former interviews.
- Some of the interviewers were a bit condescending (e.g. statements like "this job is not easy, right? it may seem like it is, but it isn't" after doing a short exercise to test my skills, but after no expression what-so-ever on my end that "this job is easy" or anything like that), which made me question whether I even want to join this organization, having my potential colleagues with such an attitude.
- Netflix has a very unique culture deck, and a lot of my interviewers seemed a bit obsessed with it, which was another red flag for me.
