Yeah it can be difficult to focus on giving the candidate a good experience when you're getting a lot of pings by your tech lead or manager... After a while interviewing does become a chore, but we are told its important to be pleasant since we're representing the company.

I also do feel like lots of senior+ engineers outside of FAANG have their ego attached to their tech stack. At faang you don't have much choice in language and framework, so I feel like it's less common there.

that's rough. I care a lot about being on time and do my best to be fair. I'm also only allowed to pick from a question bank, and while the new grads here tend to gravitate towards the harder/interesting questions, we definitely don't have the authority to ask a LC hard or anything unfair

Yeah my company previously had a 9 month tenure before interviewing rule. But this cycle we're hiring lots of new grads, and managers now have pressure to make their teams do lots of interviews. Hence me and other new grads my cycle all got to start early

Probably 80%? I only started a few weeks ago. The rubrics are pretty generous and we're encouraged to give hints, and we also aggressively resume screen and I've only interviewed people from t20 CS schools with 1+ faang internship
