Safe Security Interview Questions and Answers

Interview preparation tips for other job seekers - They had a hiring drive day at their office. I was waiting for the DSA round to happen since they conducted design round first for me and I had cleared it. I have a good run rate for the DSA round and was anticipating my call. My first round happened around 1 PM. second round they made me wait till 8 PM. DOE conducted a full 7-minute interview. Instead of asking DSA question, they asked about my previous experience. I told them about my experience with toxic companies in the past. That's it, they knew they would be a toxic company and rejected me. No DSA questions were asked.

Every candidate got 2 rounds - DSA and design. I had done really well in the design round, the architect had appreciated me. But I wasn't even given the DSA round, DOE conducted a scapegoat round and massacred candidates after making them wait for the whole day. The drive started at 10 AM, did my first around 12:30 PM, then made me wait for the whole day, they did the rejection round around 8 PM. No respect for the time of the candidates. The DOE was giving the typical corporate goonda vibes from the morning

DOE told HR to give me the feedback. HR said they will give me constructive feedback later. I told him I have waited here all day and that I deserve some feedback. I had done technically well, I was damn sure. The HR went and got the feedback that I was culturally misfit. HR told me that they will be making me work every day for long hours and that they found me unsuitable for the grunt work. Working people hard all day is one of their core cultural values is what they told me. I wondered who would like to join such a company. I told the HR that what you are calling culture isn't culture, it's oppression.

What might have happened is for candidates who got a fair evaluation, there was an HR round and salary discussion and they offered them. So for people for whom they didn't manage their interview process properly, they found reasons to reject by asking them questions they will definitely trip. DOE tried to ask me a technical question to see if I would get them wrong, once he realized that I had done my work, he went to ask me garbage questions.
1. how much do I work hard ? - I answered I work pretty hard and rated 9.5/10(it's not possible to quantify these things). Follow up, he asked me why not 10/10. I told him 10/10 is ideal and I look forward to improving. At this point, these questions aren't even fair evaluation. But you see DOE just wanted to get points for rejecting.
2. What's the proudest moment of my life? - I told him when I got placed, that was a testament to my hard work all my life.
After that, he said he was done, and rejected me by telling HR.

This is the most oppressive thing any company has ever done to me and I don't want other candidates to waste their time either interviewing or working for these companies. This is harassment of candidates
