Applied for a job with a 6 tier interview process for an entry level support position. Tier 2 was a 45(!!!)min assessment test. Queue level 3 were we spend 20min discussing the results. The 20min end with the interviewer telling me they filled the position the day before but he wanted to give me the courtesy of a talk about the test anyway. What . The . Fuck. You wasted both of our time?!
Man you have the patience of a saint. I'll do 1 interview to meet the general interviewer and I'll agree to a second with higher ups. But it ends there. I also refuse any non-paid work. We can discuss and talk about anything and everything you want, but I'm not physically doing any work for free.
I was pretty desperate for a job at that point and didn't even tell him what a fucking idiot he is.
But it's all good, I landed another job with roughly 60% higher pay. Two interviews, one 20min for screening, and a second one 1h with higher ups. They did ask me to prepare and present a case to them for the second interview. But I was fine with that, I could tell they are serious.
