Entrevista
I was referred by a previous coworker, I didn't get any conversation with a recruiter and was passed over directly to who I guessed was the hiring manager. The interview was with two people who I still don't know the roles for. Person A opened with congratulating me on a great career (?) and proceeded to do that 3 times over the interview. They were very confrontational through the interview process and sounded like the classic PMP tough-armed approach of "my way or the highway" with Person B taking notes, who I guessed was the hiring manager? The interview felt more like an interrogation, giving me little room to breathe and explain how I am effective in my role. Person A seemed to not believe any of the results I've had in the past. Person A asked me the strangest interview question I've ever had "who are you loyal to, the team, the pmo, or the client" and demanded a single choice. Huge red flags. Person B after being silent nearly the entire time asked me in this group setting what my salary band request would be and both people seemed to not like my answer? They also couldn't give me a clean answer on the salary band for the role. Then they ghosted my emailed questions for a recruiter to send me a decline.
Overall, the strangest interview I've probably ever had with some massive red flags for culture and inner politics infighting.

If you had to be loyal to one team, engineering team, project management office, or the client, who would you choose?

First round was a general overview call with the recruiter. They just makesure your'rea good fit for the role then pass you along to the technical interview portion. The technical interview was all verbal (no code review/coding exercises). The interviewer told me within the first few seconds of the call that I was not a good fit due to my lack of technical experience. (Did not even say, hello, how are you etc..). He said they were looking for someone with 15-20 yrs of experience despite the job posting looking for a candidate with 3-5 years. Questions were simple "do you have experience with troubleshooting/networking?", "describe what technologies you have experience with"... It was an extremely rushed and unprofessional experience. I think I dodged a bullet if the role/company is anything like that interview experience.
