Is it weird to feel that the company that’s hiring you can’t be that good because, after all, they are hiring you?

Sort of like I wouldn’t want to be part of any club that will have me as a member mentality

Be aware of it and try not to give it such a loud voice in your thinking. Easier said than done I know.
I’m going through it myself. Just landed a new job that starts after thanksgiving after six months. It’s a role and company I really wanted. Yet I’m actively trying to be aware and not think that I fooled them in my interviews and that they’ll find out I’m not as smart as I faked it be. Being aware of it for me helps to minimize and move forward.

When she attended she said that there was no point of responding my email as we are meeting anyway. Later on I had 2nd interview with the hiring manager. After 45 minutes she said they will let me know...

I recently had an interview with the hiring manager and they did 95% of the talking. It was the weirdest interview I’ve ever had. I didn’t know whether to interrupt and get a question and some comments in or stay quiet and listen. I couldn’t even gauge how it went. Has this happened to you.?
Also on average how many jobs do people typically interview for before they get an offer?
