Interview Preparation Tips

Interview preparation tips for other job seekers - The first interviewer was very up high in the rank but was very bad at taking interviews.
He did said ask if you have anything to ask.
But when I started asking questions, he behaved very badly .
I do not remember his name. You should forget toxic people immediately.
It was shocking to me that he was Staff Engineer.

The second round of interview was the best experience I ever had.
I remember his name but for sake of confidconfidentiality, I will only tell his position. He was MTS 3.
The questions were very good and the interviewer was very soft spoken and knowledgeable.
He answered my questions and would love to see these people climb up the ladder rather than others.
