MODERATORS
I recently interviewed for a software job where they want you to work at least 12 hours per day.
During the first interview, I had asked about work-life balance, too, and the HR rep said, "well I'm not an engineer, so I'm not sure." And then after my fourth interview, she goes, "just so you know, this will be a high intensity position. There is not much of a work/life balance.
The fuck do you mean, "fourth interview"??
This has been the norm for bigger tech companies for a while. I recently went through 4 interviews with a company that went great at every step. Had a chat with a HR folk after that about expectations, laid out my salary expectation, then was suddenly rejected the next day on not having enough relevant experience (I have literally 20 years of relevant experience).
I think they were looking for someone slightly less senior initially, but c'mon. Why waste everyone's time going through that whole process if you have no budget? I saw the post is still open and being refreshed on LinkedIn more than 6 months later.
