This was perhaps the most disrespectful and entitled interviewer I have ever met. It seems to have become a normative cultural standard for interviewers in Indian tech companies to demand that candidates turn on their cameras while they leave theirs off. This is not a good way to start a working relationship and extremely disrespectful. My general impression of the interviewer is that he was more interested in monologuing about his bizarre philosophies and bragging about the prestige of his department while disparaging my work instead of evaluating if my skills and experience were suitable for the job. Keep in mind this is an AI engineer role about creating AI agents and not a machine learning engineer role. I was not asked any relevant questions about software, system design, foundation models, or software engineering principles but instead asked esoteric and irrelevant questions that were so unrelated to the job - and given a ten minute lecture for not being able answer these questions - that it made me wonder if he used ChatGPT to generate his questions 5 minutes before the interview or even knows anything about this field. After this appallingly amateurish interview I declined the job right after the interview concluded by telling them I was withdrawing my application because this job was not a good fit for me.
