  • In this video I walk you thorough two of my worst interviewing experiences I have ever had. The fact is, interviewing for a programming job can be brutal and we all have our stories. In this video I wanted to share two of my worst experiences in hopes to help you feel better about any interviewing horror stories you may have of your own.

    I remember my first interview it was in Java core and I was trying to switch my experience from PHP to Java. I lasted only 5 minutes and the guy stopped the interview and said you must study more. LOL that was savage. Now I aced several interviews and feel very confident with java core interview.

    Thanks Chaim. This really encourages me when I am having a tough time looking for a new job.
    I have one year of experience now and I learned a lot because the company is a very early stage start-up and I wear many hats. I do frontend+backend+database+deployment. But when I am looking for new jobs these days, I just feel like I don't know how good I should be to meet their requirements. What type of engineers do they want.
    But anyways, really appreciate your videos. I not only learned a lot but also got motivated a lot from your videos. Keep up the good work! And hope I can land a job soon!

Actually I joined the company last week and I already addressed two tickets (very simple ones though). I am here to thank you for all your videos and inspiration. They really helped me a lot. Wish you and your video viewers all the best! I will keep learning from you!

    I cannot tell how much I got motivated by the video. I am a developer with 1-year of experience in Italy. Then, I moved back to Poland. Since then I got rejected last 2 years (maybe there is a covid effect too). However, I wake up at 5:30 PM in the morning and dive into coding before I start my casual work every day. And sometimes I feel alone in this challenge. Thank you Chaim. you make us people like me that 'we are not alone and we won't give up.

    Recently got rejected after a 3 question week long coding interview. I feel I did fairly well answering all questions on gist with live links. The interviewer replied saying "sorry, but please provide feedback on the interview process" . I took a couple of minutes to do just that... I then ask for feedback in return, as to why I was rejected.... crickets...🦗🦗🦗

    I'm still looking for a junior full stack position, one of my interviews was remote and live, there was technical questions and I answered them while beign watched. I have 2 screens and when I was talking I looked at the video stream at the other screen. after few days I recieved a rejection email suggesting that I copied my solution from another source

    Can't believe you actually sent back that reply asking to be compensated for the cancelled interview 🤣.
    Were you being snarky or serious?

    I very recently started my first non-freelancing programming job and the opportunity only came because I was first contracting for the owner. I've never had any success at software companies and more often than not the only stories you hear are the nonsense devs go through trying to even find a job

      There is certainly some truth to this, but I will say that I’ve had some pleasant interviews as well. There is no denying however that as an industry we we can do better with the interviewing process
