First off, interviewer did not introduce themselves after I have done so. I had to ask. That’s fine, no problem. I should have known who they are despite meeting for the first time.
Asked the typical questions like “tell me your 3 weaknesses” like it’s 1990.
Got really defensive when I casually asked “How is the work culture like?”
Their immediate reply was “what aspect do you mean?”
Like seriously? What aspect? Work culture is work culture. Simply put, “are you slave drivers and toxic?”. Stop pretending you don’t know what I’m asking.
Best part was, when interview ended, the interviewed immediately stood up, turned his face to the other direction and hastily exited the room. I was in the midst of saying thank you, and offered my handshake to the air.
I may not be a great fit for the role, but I sure do not want to join such an organization.
Best part of the entire process was, the meeting room had no ventilation nor any aircon, indoor temperate was at least 30 degrees.
A company that has identify crisis: not knowing if they are T-PRIDE, T-PREP or TTPL.
