They brought in the CTO to interview me, and I had never encountered someone with such little tact or patience for an interview—he was really rude. His English had a typical Indian accent, so if you’re not a native English speaker, I’d recommend watching videos of Indians speaking English to practice and see if you can understand them. He came across as VERY arrogant, and I ended up disliking the company entirely! I’ve never been in an interview where the interviewer didn’t introduce themselves or try to put me at ease—it was horrible, an awful experience! His microphone was terrible and kept cutting out, and then he brought up a dataset about cars, asked me to open it and share my screen, but he wasn’t willing to repeat what he wanted. I started explaining things based on my experience as a data scientist, which I’ve been doing for a few years now. However, within two minutes, he said I wasn’t a fit for the role and ended the call.

Talked with the CEO, the interview was OK. The company was rebranding and the questions were OK. It seems that they are pivoting to a new product related to a no-code platform.
