Applied for the recently opened Java engineer position
As soon as I entered the office, I saw a bunch of people who looked like gang members sitting inside. I later learned that they were telemarketers, but no one wants to work with delinquents and hooligans.
Then there was the notoriously sour-faced HR representative, who did not really understand the engineering world.
After speaking briefly with the “technical manager,” I realized that no one at this company understands Java or apps, nor do they know what they want Java for. The boss simply wanted to hire Java developers, so they were taking random shots in the dark.
