You must have had conversations with your friends from other companies. Is it the same experience for them too? Does it not depend on company's work culture? Just curious

I was accepted with open arms. Company culture has actually been a bit better. The interview process was quite long and I didn't get an offer for almost 4 weeks, and then another 3 weeks of logistic things before making the move. But it has been great

After 2 years of a pandemic and working independently for many years, I am not feeling interviews AT ALL. There are points in the interview where I want to just say "Look! Either hire me or don't".

How can I get over this feeling? I'm over the whole "stand in the line of fire to prove how good I am" bs. Any recommendations for getting over this or possible industries to pivot into to avoid bs interview processes and ghosting?
