Interviewer: I don't understand. With a resume and portfolio like yours you shouldn't be applying to companies like us. You should be setting your sights on companies like Google/Meta. You'd be bored here after everything you've done so far. I know we're offering more money than your current position but you're worth more believe me. I'm going to keep looking, and so should you. But you need to aim higher.

Dev: ...

Well fuck me I guess?

    Plot twist: You interviewed at your own startup.

    If I meet such an interviewer, I want to give them a kiss (assuming a woman) and thank for their honest opinion

    You don't come across such people often. In fact, none at all. Everyone is waiting to screw and drill all your holes once we fall prey

    @asgs but they haven't accepted him...

    Did you know, that it is generally accepted for the interviewee to speak in an interview?

    You could tell them, that and why you don't want to work for companies like Google or Meta.

    @asgs Yeah honestly it was a shocker and it was a very well recieved and appreciated sentiment. Although it could also be a very sly way of telling someone they're dogshit and they can go fuck off and make the world a worse place somewhere else. But he didn't say to apply to work on Google Firebase specifically so 50/50 what he actually meant. /s

    That's a good hr.

    Investing into a strong potential employee who will be rotting out of boredom is a bad investment. For both parties.

    Hats off to the hr!

    and why, i ask you, am I living through this version of events where I'm viewing my own problems from the outside ?

    Unironically telling someone to aim Google/Meta... yeah, it is definitely not a trolling. /s

    So basically sounds like the big ones don't want you and the small ones don't want you either. Yes you are fucked.....

    What if you if you think those companies are shit and don’t want to work for them?

    JUST TELL THEM, YOU ARE NOT GOING TO SELL YOUR SOUL TO COMPANIES THAT TRY TO PUT HUMANS INTO BOXES TO USE THEM AS BATTERIES IN THE FUCKING NEXT 10 YEARS.

    @vintprox WTF, GOOGLE LAMBDA IS LITERALLY FUCKING YOUR WHOLE BRAIN THROUGH MULTIPLE CHANNELS, THAT YOU WOULD FUCKING NEVER REALIZE IF I WOULDNT TELL YOU, THAT AN AI IS CONTROLLING 99% PERCENT OF YOUR LIFE, LITERALLY JUST RIGHT NOW.

    Being Over qualified is a real thing, but mostly the seniority is the issue not the quality.

    @ess3sq yes, but the AI is also MODIFYING YOU with hundreds of small interferences in thousands of popular pages

    @boombodies don't think so. In my previous organisation I've also had to turn down some over qualified people. If you know you are going to invest time in someone and have to do the whole process again in 6 months,l. This includes recruitment and previous good candidates are burned.
    That is a hefty consequence for having an ace around.
