    Love the "Yes And" framework and candid interview. It was refreshing to hear honest answers.

    It resonates with me a lot… My experience overshadows my professional empathy when responding to juniors with ideas… I am definitely going to try this “Yes, Let’s try…” model going forward.

    I think you missed the chance to ask some more very interesting and practical questions to a DIRECTOR.

    I had the same problem and I started to fix it at the end of the university days when I realized this negative standard response to change and new ideas. My initial procedure to stop it was first explain people that I had the problem but that I would come up with a solution in the the or next day and make them aware.
    After a time I was able to be positive andget excited when people dropped new ideas

    Contradictory statements, he said he was in a team which constantly asked others for features and dependencies and on top of it he said "no" to whatever was asked of him 😳

    I feel you are in depression for a while and then you have self realisation because you have strong mindset which saves you. IT happened with me too because I don't want to give chance to speak non-sense in front of me

    A little too high level and academic in the answers. Would have loved for the interviewer to help drill down into more details.

    Sorry to say - No energy, no passion and it’s not even clear to understand him.

      I don't think he did well, but there was enough substance that I believe he would be a much stronger candidate with better preparation. I believe this candidate threw himself under the bus by portraying himself as dismissive and rude.

    What I took from this is he believed he needed to change his attitude so that he could climb the ladder but he didn’t really believe it.
    Not a great example of an interview. He may be technically capable to pass interviews on that alone but he failed the behavioral module.
