Entrevista
It was very bad experience to be very true, the person who was taking the interview does not have the technical insight and was asking ridiculous questions about technology which she did not knew ( can be concluded from the questions).
Even she was not even interested to look into the camera while asking questions, for the entire she was just looking into the tab and her mobile.
Third, she was in such a ego that when I explained her that the business scenario she is giving is not valid, her face turned red. Just for off the records she was asking me questions on kafka, she didnot knew difference between a Topic and partition, nor she knew anything about Producer and Consumer group.
Even she was asking that she have a producer which automatically upscale the topics, which itself is wrong as it is a queue for a certain set of messages.
At the end she cut me short and said they have to arrange a different interview as she has some other meeting to attend.
In short there were lot of invalid question, and the person( as a courtesy not mentioning the name) who was so called technical Manager, does not anything about Technology and was carrying lot of ego with her, probably she is with the organization.
Please do not ask such people to take interview, it not only waste the time of the candidate but also degrades the image of the company.

Entrevista
A recruiter contacted me on LinkedIn, for a new Greenfield project in JPMorgan Chase that was still a secret.
After the initial chat with the recruiter, there were three round of interviews: Live code: this was an array exercise with medium complexity, and trying to do it in the more efficient possible way. System Design: explain how would I'd design a payment system.
I passed these two interviews, and then the last one was 45m cultural fit with the project DM who is based in NY. It was a disaster.
First thing the guy said he was busy and won't be able to be at the interview for the 45m. He then proceeded to ask a question, which is a very common question asked in these kind of interviews, and which even the recruiter had told me he was going to ask. But he asked it in a slightly different way, with the aim of playing some mind tricks on me. After my response, he asked me why I answered that way, since it was not the question he made. He then went on a philosophical lecture about how people assume things or not, and after a few attempts of clarifying things with him, he finished the interview.
This seemed very unfair to me, in my long career I've never had to deal with something like this.
I believe this guy is doing JPMorgan a disservice, because he's rejecting many perfectly capable, talented and experienced candidates (and I'm not necessarily saying it for me; same thing happened to a couple of ex-colleagues of mine) just because their brains don't work exactly the same way as his.
