      Application

      I applied online. I interviewed at Revive Media in Jan 2025

      Interview

      Process took about week. Had a phone screen with a very nice recruiter, then went straight to a discussion with their CTO. He gave me some basic details about engineering @ Revive, answered some of my questions about their tech stack and their processes, then proceeded to let me talk about some of my most recent experiences. Except not really - upon bringing up a certain project I worked on, I was cut off to go and asked to go into further detail on that one thing, (out of 2 dozen or so points of interest on my resumé), so I did. When describing the last aspect of this project, I mentioned that we designed it with extensibility in mind so that another developer could easily come in and add additional functionality. I was then weirdly asked what nuget package I would leverage to make this extensibility piece work if I were to rebuild again. Points off for not knowing this nuget package by name I guess, but the point is the package was never needed in the first place - what I built utilized a design pattern that alreadyadd it extensible. I was then asked to describe improvements between .NET versions from 5 to 8. Points for not reviewing the release notes from .NET versions 5 and 7 that are literally already out-of-support I guess. I was notified 10 minutes after the call they would not be going forward with me. Bottom line - poor line of questioning that didn't even begin to scratch of what I've done or what I could have offered them. This goes to show that the fact you are already at the company doesn't mean you make for a good interviewer.
