Has anyone encountered a super rude interviewer? Mine was frickin biting his nails, yawning (without covering his mouth), zoning out, and showing zero interest in what I had to say. Would cut me off and interrogate instead of asking questions. Such a terrible experience.

Had one guy repeatedly checking his watch like he couldn’t wait to get out of there. Then he walked out about 20 min in and left me there with the kid who had just started.

Did he forget his camera was on!?!

I don’t think so, he was just being rude 🙄

I recently had one yelling at me. He asked a technical question, one outside my experience, which we just finished discussing. I wasn't able to answer the question and he started ranting like a lunatic. After the interview, I called the recruiter and told them no thanks.

I had an interviewer at IBM asked me would I choose between 100K salary job or the job I was applying which he repeatedly said that required however late it took to get the job done for him. I was a freshly graduated at that time. Believe it or not.

Hello everyone,

I wanted to know how long does Course5i take to release an offer, I cleared all rounds last friday and was going to get an offer from HR early this week (by Monday evening or Tuesday) but didn’t get any offer till now.

I loved the role and I am still excited to join the organisation so mailed a follow up to the HR yesterday but did not get any response till now. I do not want to follow up for the next 1-2 days since I feel it would be too pushy from my end.
