Yeah - it's typically the way it's done unfortunately in tech. Especially now since things are remote. Most are for assessing various skills like how you approach things, problem solve, function in your role, etc.

It’s quite easy for me to imagine why. There’s a tremendous amount of competition for the jobs! The interviews are part of that competition.

I am a young professional... But every job interview I’ve had so far pretty much just wants to know what kind of person I am. They are as interested in my leadership/communication as much as they are in me talking about my experience.

(“Real jobs” in accounting, finance and private equity.)

Is this how it will always be? Or is this predominantly because I am in lower positions at this point in my career?
