The interviewer asked me about the most critical security aspect of a company and how I would protect and assist developers. However, he didn't allow me to finish expressing my initial thoughts, which would have taken only a minute to explain clearly. Instead, he disrespectfully pressured me to provide an answer that aligned with his specific expectations, disregarding my perspective and expertise. It felt as though he was more interested in hearing his own preconceived notions rather than engaging in a meaningful discussion.
