Does anyone else get super nervous during technical interviews? I have industry experience (I google things sometimes like anyone else) but then ask me what an ROC is under pressure and my mind goes blank šŸ˜¬

Hands literally shake in both interviews and when giving talks, but vocal delivery is confident and no brainfarts usually. Just wish interviews were more consistent. SWEs can drill leetcode and some architectures and be fine, but DS can feel like playing jeopardy.

It's like oh I see the letters SQL on your resume, have you used Aardvark-Zebra Database? Can you tell me all about your last employer's trade secrets? Would you like to solve this case, and then we can talk about JS front ends? How about you do this take-home to write us some production code for free? Say, I don't suppose you remember this obscure proof from your probability class, do you? Oh and by the way, three knights are on an island...

I got asked a market sizing question right after SQL questions and completely dropped the ball. The interviewer even said ā€œthat was an easy oneā€. I was like welp, I hope I never work with anyone like you - flat out embarrassing an interviewee because they jacked up a question

I work in insurance. I was working for an Allstate agent and was fired the day after my grandmothers funeral for being ā€œunenthusiastic in our morning meetingā€. Now Iā€™m having anxiety searching for a job. I donā€™t think I want to sell anymore yet every single recruiter I interview with says I should, that I have a ā€œsalesperson mentalityā€.

Hi fishes,
I interviewed with
Siemens Energy for SAP ABAP position on 21st Jan. The interview went on for about an hour and in the end, the interviewer asked my expected ctc and wanted assurance if I won't negotiate on Siemens offer with some other company as i am currently serving notice period and join Siemens if provided an offer.
Till now , the HR team has not reached out to me for salary discussions and my LWD is 7th Feb. Can i expect a call or i got rejected ?Siemens

Iā€™m interviewing with the company although I have offer signed with another (going though background checks, so didnā€™t wanna stop before knowing 100%). Really love the process and the team, but unless something goes sideways with signed offer wonā€™t be joining them. I have a colleague who is probably even better fit for the position, I know that she will enjoy the team too and would be happy for a chance to interview with them. How do I approach this?
