Attentive Software Engineer Interview Experience: dismissive managerial conversation

After a recruiter screening, I had a managerial round. I received the job description, but the details about the structure and expectations turned out to be wrong. Before the questions even began, the interaction felt uncomfortable because the tone did not feel respectful.

The conversation came across as skeptical and dismissive. My answers were treated as though they had been discounted from the beginning. It was not simply a fit mismatch. I felt I was treated unprofessionally. I left convinced the process was not heading anywhere positive, and I did not receive an offer.

Location: New York, NY. Overall feedback: negative. Offer status: no offer.
