Based on a true story...
I can smell rejected
@@masternobody1896 😂😂
Oh boy
Gosh! Serious! Is it from one of the MNC or more specifically FAANG?
By who?
“My last meeting went a little over”
My favorite excuse that everyone uses for being late
this is entirely true haha I had same interview. The funny thing is, tech exam is not related to the job in company, you will never use trees haha
yep, the interviews are actually testing your ability/willingness to grind Leetcode lol. To be fair, these big companies are very data driven, so you can assume ability/willingness to grind leetcode correlates well with success as a developer.
I meet the same things but in different interviewers.
they ask you complex questions but your actual job is to change the color of the button or center a div in CSS lol
One of the first tasks I was ever assigned as a Software Engineer involved building trees to categorize various XML based data patterns. I also needed a basic understating of trees to build a directory structure for an application. So learning trees can definitely be helpful in some areas.
yeah that moment you realize in week 2 or 3 of the job that the interview questions were NOTHING like the job. most jobs don't even require much in-depth knowledge of algorithms or data structures, and where they do, you can spend 20 minutes refreshing your memory online and boom, you're able to solve problems. yet the interview process madness continues...
Happened to me 1 year ago.
Interviewer kept bragging about their experience and what they work on for 15 minutes, then wrote a long essay (the problem definiton) and went ahead to explain it (the wrong way as their definition clearly violated some test case examples) for 10 more minutes.
Then asked me to define my methodology and expected me to code a solution that would take at least 30 minutes to code at full speed, compile and run it and write tests that validate the solution all within 20 minutes of time.
I got everything there, the discussion, the idea, even the code with a few missing test cases and their recommendation was no hire!
sometimes I wonder if the outcome of these interviews is predestined in some way. like they don't really want to hire or they already had a candidate in mind and are going through the motions to appear unbiased
And THIS is why you gotta communicate EVERYTHING you’re thinking during a coding interview.
and then you get called out for not spending enough time coding. i got called out for writing comments that outlined the approach I was gonna take before implementing the details. in other interviews got called out for the opposite, and everything in between. it's a crapshoot.
This is why I hate to change jobs, having to prove myself all over again
I feel bad for americans in that regard - you get paid more, but apparently that comes with a heavy cost. I don't think I have gotten a single code interview in Denmark, ever. I have gotten a few code CASES, where they gave a real company problem, asked me to code up a solution and go through it at the interview. - You know, to see how you will actually do the job?
@@sorvex9 any big tech giant interview is like that. My friend went to meta on london and the interview process is the same is in the us
@@sorvex9 all the interviwes should be like this, everything related to the job you are applying
@@hil449 a US based company…
@@sorvex9 all interviews must be like this indeed related to the job you will do.
as a SDE at FAANG I feel like these are valid questions though they could be a bit annoying, but they expect you to think loud and not just stay in silence for 5 minutes and start talking
it really depends on the interviewer
In this example the interviewer didn't give him time to respond to the questions and just cut them off each time they answered.
I can see some of them as valid. This one, for instance is easy to logic your way through by looking at the example. However, there are some questions they ask they are basically, "did you memorize the algorithm for this specific problem?" And that's annoying.
I got an anxiety problem when i hear that teams voicecall
This is so hilarious and you are damn right man!! Hate that hypocrisy here … it’s sad that we got to “ fake “ everything in that conversation
It's scary how true this is! Every part of it! 😭
I thought you are gonna say that, interviews I've never left them even when I have work and they always surprise me.
Good luck Pirate!!! I am gonna need it too jajaja
Haha.. such a true story! However there are even worse experiences... like asking you to do their job eg. "how would you set up the strategy for next year"? or "what would you do to bring higher ROAS"? and tens of other silly or "clever" questions. I could write a book on that!
Oh jeez I feel you man, this was me when I get asked difficult technical questions for I.T. Support jobs. Questions were like, what help desk ticketing systems have you used in the past, how would you describe a technical solution to someone with little to no knowledge, how do you stay up-to-date with technologies, if a customer calls in saying they currently don't have internet access, how would you address the problem, can you explain the difference between RAM and ROM, and if a customer calls in saying their PC is slow, how would you address the problem. This is when I getting more nervous because I'm more of a plug and play type of tech support vs all these nitty gritty tech support.
Nice preview of interviews...
I like your video, it's very interesting! And the new hairstyle looks perfect for you. Enjoy every seconds on your video!
Thankyou for sharing bro!
I enjoyed each second :)
It's scary how accurate this is...
This is the last thing I needed to see 18 days before my MAANG interview 🫠
9 Days for me :D
Jokes on you. This taught me how to turn a sorted array into a balanced binary tree.
Hey, pirate king this is awesome 🤣🤣
dmmm your videos so good 😂 keep going!!!!!!!!
The exact opposite happened to me today lol. I was doing final round at Microsoft, interviewer came in and said hello, let’s start with the coding question.
💀💀💀💀💀
Edit:
Declined Microsoft.
Accepted Amazon Offer
?
did u get selected
@@sabihamadiha1117 My virtual onsite, 4 rounds, was split into 2 different dates.
So I had 2 rounds yesterday, and another 2 rounds coming this Friday. I'll probably find out by next week.
@@BatehamRadio Good luck man 👍🏾
Lucky u... with 3 years of .net experience Microsoft still has yet to shortlist me 🤣
@@Mark-rt6fy I'm talking about getting shortlisted, not passing interviews.
The interviewer cut in during the introduction because he don't have time to waste and want to make it quick!
Then a few minutes later, still self-exposition on his greatness haha, ROFL!
Haha ikr!
I had similar expericne with one of the MNCs. The interviewer took 30 mins with his introduction and we kept on discussing technical stuff for other 20 mins. He give me 10 mins for coding test which I could not finish as we were discussing during coding test as well. At last he selected me ( I still don't know why he selected me ! 😀😀)
Hmm this pretty cool,full but helpful 😍
Lmao!! You're my favorite creator on youtube.
I am so fed up of the "sorry my last call overran" or someone refusing to join a meeting you'd scheduled ages ago because they're "on another call". No - you get off that other call and be where you're supposed to be, at the right time. If you engage my team for something you need our help with and we get mucked around like that, you're at the back of the queue. Our lead time is currently 60 days.
Show some professionalism and basic courtesy. This is totally unacceptable *especially* if you are interviewing a candidate as it gives a negative view of the company before you've even started.
I'm still laughing on FangSoft
Nice one from you Bro
bro did everything right but forgot to edit the muted mic LOL
In the thumbnail pic he kinda looks like Jin. Anyways awesome video 👍
Hey there!, nice videos, keep it:))
Some interviewers are so unprepared to be interviewer that we can just feel frustrated after such moment!
I hope I never have to do these interviews again lol
Oh no, now I feel bad because I do ask a lot of questions on the code when a candidate don’t explain what he is coding right now 😅
I relate to this SO MUCH. I had a guy who was supposedly the principal engineer at a large company. He literally, and I mean literally, interrupted me every 30 seconds for 1 hour straight, and changed the task constantly and even the question entirely. Asks me to serialize and deserialize a binary tree Alright, easy enough. Within like 5 minutes I'm ready to start coding, he stops me and tells me to do code walkthroughs without the code, but with examples, actually with a diagram, actually with pseudo code, actually what would happen with an n-ary tree? You know what, let's just do a BFS for n-ary tree instead (before I've even had a chance to complete his first question or any of his subtasks, he changed the question entirely) then asking me to code walkthroughs of how BFSs work and finally with 6 minutes remaining on the clock, and not a single function written so far, but a coderpad that's literred with fragments of half completed walkthroughs, diagrams, he says "Alright let's code it up for a binary tree coz we only have 6 minutes, and make sure it compiles" - an absolutely mammoth and impossible task. I said I'd rather complete this n-ary one that I'm halfway through a walkthrough - which I obviously couldn't do in 6 minutes as it is a very complex problem requiring hours of thought. When i told him at the end the tasks were constantly switching too much (didn't say he was constantly interrupting coz it felt rude), he squarely put the blame on me and said "I did let you code it for the binary tree approach at the end. it was your choice to continue with the n-ary" followed by "do you have any other questions?" I wouldn't hire him for an unpaid internship let alone a principal engineer. Till today, he is the most chaotic engineer I have met. Obviously I ended up failing the interview, but I don't think I would want to work with such a defensive and chaotic and incompetent team member any ways. I don't know how he managed to hoodwink this large company anyways into making him a principal engineer. Maybe it says a lot about the company culture.
happened to me last year, I had 2 tech interviews and in the first one, a guy said he didn't like to interview candidates from tech side, instead he gave me 2-3 basic tech questions and for the rest of the interview we talked about our shared interests, like I said my purpose was becoming a pilot and he had masters degree in aviation 😂
OMG kkk
I love this chanel.
That's so hilarious😂
thankyou it wAS GREAT :) : ) :)
funny thing is... I watch this after doing an interview. aaaand I failed :")
This is the type of interview that can start a villain arc XD
Hope you never have to go through this again!
Very True
Reminds me of an amazon interview I took for giggles when they gave me two challenges (one a matrix challenge and another graph challenge) and the hacker rank was set to a half hour for both problems. Upon writing my first passing test, it introduced a bug in the hacker rank tests and all submissions were failing. Happily left that interview.
I would have turned down the job anyway, I've heard amazon loves to overwork their employees, and I'm done with the everything is always crunch time now and forever environments. Happily in a senior software engineer job now that not only pays better, but I never have to put in more than 40hrs a week. Oh... and the app I just built out in 4 months just sold for 1.5 billion :D
1.5 billion is alot, can i have some please?
@@solitc I didn't get a penny outside of my salary. It's the companies. I did manage to make everyone's jobs lucrative though for the next few decades.
What was this app about? Could you please share details?
@@tanzimchowdhury320 First, let me say I take no pride in what I have built. It was just a job when I needed one for me. It was a cannabis dispensary app for government run dispensaries. It contains promotions, discounts, reward system, categories of shopping goods, nearest available locations, a cart and checkout, an order history page, google maps and finder, many different searches throughout the site, lots of unique business rules pandering to different states and their laws, and pretty much all the modern frontend stuff (modals, alerts, sliders, ect...) both for browser(responsive) and mobile apps which was accepted by apple. This was a startup I worked for so there wasn't anyone else who had their hands in the code base.
If I say anymore than that it would be easy to tell who I am and that's where I stop.
There are other apps I built for other companies such as lockheed martin and qualcomm where I have both made and saved them millions. (also before the amazon interview challenge)
Now I work for a company where I don't have to put in more than 40 hours and make probably more than any amazon developer. Yay me.
@@JakeSummers2424 Wondering if you could advice someone like me? I just got into college, and i don't have much any ideas nor knowledge about this stuff. Appreciate it if you could give this nimcompoop an advice :D
the interviewer's name is jk omggg hahahahaha
Recently had a similar interview experience. It was pain 🥲
Bro this happened to me with a PHD interviewer, I could not..
I remember the binary search algorithm during my decision mathematics days
💯 relatable 😂😂😂😂😂
3:30 This gives me ptsd 🥲
I haven't seen a tree since college lol.
My on-site was the opposite. Guy entered the call, gave a leetcode hard problem, gave 0 hints, and proceeded to surf Reddit or Facebook the entire time.
Needless to say I’m expecting a rejection.
:(
damn, did you ask for hints tho? Some times you gotta ask
Just had the same thing for lyft.
Brutal. I've made entire frameworks I wasn't prepared for this and don't see a path to being able to crush these other than just memorization.
I mean I don’t know if it’s well networked interview they might not even ask you technical questions 🤷♂️, this is different for fanng but I do like to waste the time by talking and follow them up on the coding challenge after I solve it after the interview hehe 😉

@@PIRATEKINGDOM Thank you!
In 15 years I never had to write a sorting function by hand
Thanks God I'm not smart enough to get these types of interviews 🤣🥴😵😵💫🤪.
Crazy how the further I get into my studies the funnier these get
I too keep my mic muted for the entire interview as well
You can do ur best in ur last 5 mins🤣🤣
kaizoku ou ni, ore wa naru!!!!!
0:00 when u realise the reason your code hasn’t been working for the last 8 hours is because you forgot to call the function
BUT HOW WE MAKE BST FROM sorted ARRAY !!!!?
Roger of coding
I am literally a recent bootcamp graduate from Latam and I hope in my first technical interview to do my best XD
it's really true that some coding excercises are like this?
If u r unlucky!
Hi, can you please answer how to apply to hear back.
This is true.
Well, a good programmer would have told them to cut their intro short as their tardiness and long winded intro had eaten into his scheduled time.
His incessant questioning could have been a test of your ability to cope with distractions and pressure.
Be direct, but be respectful
I’m just a dirty ole construction worker…why am I watching this 😅
U r not dirty ole ;)
2 years ago I was an electrician, I taught myself Python and software engineering throughout the lockdown and all and I am now working full-time as a full stack software engineer. Construction or not, if you have the passion and drive, it is possible!
Oh boy!!🤣🤣🤣🤣
Both of you did not turn on the camera 📸
Yeah, this is exactly that filling when you are trying to code something and interviewer already asking what the point of this method??
let's face it. it's a crapshoot, a hazing experience, a way to continue to infuse bias in the hiring process while appearing unbiased and pseudo-scientific
I’m curious…have you seen the new one piece chapter?
I feel bad for americans in that regard - you get paid more, but apparently that comes with a heavy cost. I don't think I have gotten a single code interview in Denmark, ever. I have gotten a few code CASES, where they gave a real company problem, asked me to code up a solution (AT HOME, WITH STACKOVERFLOW) and go through it at the interview. - You know, to see how you will actually do the job?
i have a college degree in mechanical engineering and naval engineering, will this help me get a job as a data scientist?
Sry I can’t answer that as I’m not a data scientist :(
Best video lol 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
ahahaaa straight facts lol
Plot twist:He got the job.
OH BOY
lol, I do think they're a little annoying. But they want to hear you speak while coding
This video is kind of stressful... PTSD maybe 🙄
🙄
Hello , you are amazing... I love all your videos. thanks for sharing all these great contents. SUBBED and LIKED ! a fellow creator,,....'[
We need coding lessons lol
I also have had this interview. Twice.
damn
Omg 🤣🤣
Bro this is not even funny because its so true. Guy spends 15 minutes talking about himself. Takes 5 minutes to get the problem on the screen, and then i have 15 minutes to code a solution. I can solve these problems but not in 15 minutes with constant interruptions.
And I thought your parody video was going to be about an AI interviewer….
Damn
Well, that's not what I was expecting. Originally I paused at 2:11 to solve the question myself. It took me a few days only because I wasn't just coding this but building another program and a display to build my practice programs. I already knew what I to do for the code that made the tree itself in about 2 minutes.
If the interviewer kept talking like that during the code to block me, I would be tempted to either mute them or just talk my way through giving him no chance to talk himself.
