QA Engineer Interview Experience

The overall interview process wasn't good. The employees I was supposed to initially interview with rescheduled. I ended up being interviewed by employees that were not familiar with the technical domain I work in. Phone screen was a typical Leetcode easy/medium question involving array manipulation and counters. Final round involved the typical behavioral questions and a leetcode medium graph question. Was given a use case to automate with CypressJS but the website design had changed so it wasn't even possible to do. Interviewer was clueless so we pivoted to something else. They were also rude and snarky as if it was my fault they were unprepared, obviously never attempted what they were asking, and were ignorant to the domain. Was ultimately ghosted and they never responded back. Probably for the better the way the Pinterest CEO is prioritizing the AI sloppification of Pinterest and laying off engineers.
