Many people have had a different experience from yours.  Idiotic, irrelevant coding questions; clueless technical interviewers using the interview as an opportunity to stroke their ego, or having no idea of good questions to ask.<p>I don&#x27;t consider interviewing &quot;beneath me&quot;, but its a two-way street.  I prepared for my job and this interview.  If the prospective company shows a serious lack of skill&#x2F;professionalism, its not only a red flag, its demoralizing, especially when they approached me.  I&#x27;ve had this happen multiple times.  I&#x27;ve also had great, well-considered experiences.  Thank goodness.
