**If any of you want to join the fight because you are fed up being scammed by the Indians behind the screens, bitched by those sneaky barstards from the HR of those organizations, bullied/blocked online by their tech partners when you are looking for jobs to apply, looking to connect with people online, looking for good services/products, etc., Whether you are an engineer, executive, lawyer, banker, or even an HR professional, let's talk or meet to see if you can help me in any way, so I can keep fighting them until we get things right, so there will be no more victims!**
**I haven't had any job offers in a year since my last job. After being scammed/fakely interviewed at least 2-3 time a week for almost a year, my pain starts to become anger, I simply want to spew out all of the reasons why I still haven't landed a job?! It's not all about competitions!**
**These are the main causes. There are horrible horrible folks in these organizations below(Even the officers from my unemployment agency frowned on their lying). They should be held accountable for rigging the job market, committing fraud, bullying employees, racism, corrupting competitions/interviews and creating a toxic workplace/culture...**
**The worst of all is they have an ability to fire/lay off people as they please. There are no equal opportunity, no performance-based metrics/methods, and even if they exist, they can easily change your performance by working with their favorite teams to give you a difficult time at work by denying you the resources/access you need to execute your job, as well as cutting off information sharing and collaboration. That was exactly what happened to me at JPMC. My performance has dramatically changed in a short period of time. I was like a goose chaser chasing teammates from oversea teams for weeks/months for the access/resources I needed to finish my tasks. My manager was attempting to help me as he noticed the issue but before he can resolve it. He became preoccupied with a soon-to-be toxic new work environment as a group of people, including a product manager, a product owner, an architect, tech leads (at least 3-4, and leads were continually replacing or promoting due to conflicts and disagreements.), 2-3 agility leads and 3 or more junior developers/interns, were abruptly added to our team. So I gave up and wanted to be transfered to a different team. I applied internal jobs and had multiple interviews with a few teams, and they all seemed to want me, but it all ended at HR. As they mentioned, I was not yet at the one-year employment mark and need my manager's approval. So I wrote a request to HR and tried to get my manager's approval. Not only did HR not handle my request, but they also somehow created a conflict between me and my manager. I had no issue with my manager. My manager is a good manager. He treated everyone equally with respect and recognized my performance when I addressed a critical project issue and rewarded me with a raise. The reason I wanted to move to another team is definitly not because of him. I never complained about my manager, and I still thanked him when I left. I felt sorry for both him and my original teammates. Somehow, I felt that the mess started because of me. I somehow gave drama queens opportunities to make a drama. After months of working in a toxic environment, I couldn't take it any longer and went on leave. Then I got all the negative stuff an employee could possibly get from the HR(As I recall, the written warning prevented me from taking offers from other teams). Not only was I unable to accept offers from other teams after reaching my one-year mark, but the manager was forced to lay me off and let go other original team contributors later after the new project was cancelled.**
**Original team members(5 of us), including myself, are required to put down all of our responsibilities/tasks for developing and maintaining/fixing the current project, which had been ongoing for over 5 years (and they surely can't abandon the project, since many teams were using our project to manage and deploy their SSL certificates. I'm not sure what they did with the project, but it was presumably given to another team) and begin working on the tasks assigned to us by numerous leads, architech, product manager, and product owner. It was a mess! I've never seen a team structured like that at anywhere I worked. Within a couple of months, the project was canceled without even a complete architectual diagram. Everyone that includes me was either transferred to another team, or joined another company after being laid off for no reason.**
**How do teams become HR's favorite teams? Because many teams are made up of low-wage foreign workers who are most likely on employer-sponsored visas or work from oversea. As a result, they are unable to negotiate their salary and must agree with whatever HR requires, even if those requirements are unethical, illicit, or even illegal.**
**That is why foreign workers are the HR department's preferred candidates, especially for senior management/lead positions. It's not just that they can be easily exploited, they're also "loyal" to HR. Note, I'm not saying all foreign workers are awful! They are also victims of HR if it is a bad HR as I have described.**
**Mow your lawn, HR drama queens need to go:**
**Fire or lay them off, so that professinonal workers can return to work! Because they will never change their behaviors.They have practiced numerous methods to ruin employees, teams, eventually departments/companies, and they have also formed their own network to do so, both inside or outside the company. When they spread out like weeds, the situation gets worse, and all the shit ways of treating people/making drama are handed down. The weeds' roots must be removed to stop them.**
**Get rid of the top 10+ drama queens at HR, and you will notice a significant improvement in the poor culture and work force, I promise!**
**Hopefully, all of these nightmares will come to an end and we will be able to return to work.**

The overall coding interview duration is 45 minutes, however at least 5 minutes must be spent before the interview questions and 5 minutes afterward for the candidate to ask questions. So the actual coding time is 35 minutes or less, depending on how your luck goes. Correct me if I'm wrong. The candidate will have a maximum of 17 minutes and 30 seconds to finish the questions only if the introduction and post questions take no more than 10 minutes. I timed myself to just type out an optimal solution for a medium level question without thinking and without making any mistakes. It takes me about 5 minutes, but if the question is partly written, the candidate is more likely have to ask the interviewer to elaborate and clarify it, which could add at least a few minutes. Let's assume 3 minutes is the minimum; if the interviewer asks you to describe your thoughts and solution while you're coding, that's at least another 3 minutes talk. So this means you have a maximum of 6 minutes to think about your solution, this also includes reviewing any errors you made after you write your solution. Forget about processing from brutal force to best solution. Just write down the best solution as fast as you can.
If your interview situation is as mentioned above, or even better (they will need to bend a rule for you), and you have excellent coding abilities, you should be able to come up with the best solution, write it down, review it, and debug it in 11 minutes or less, You might get your dream job with a great salary. However, if you look carefully, you'll notice that many aspects are outside your control, and they have a significant impact on whether you win or lose. It's like winning the lottery: more than half of your chances depend on luck and how much they like you. Here's why:
1\. The introductory talk could be longer or shorter. It's not up to you.
2\. Each solution for each question could more/less than 5 minutes of typing without thinking and making any mistakes.Medium-level Leetcode problems may be appropriate, but tbh I doubt answers for most hard leetcode problems require less than 5 minutes of typing. What questions you get depends on your luck. I mean, if the solutions to two questions take more than 10 minutes of typing, you're practically out of luck, it's difficult to finish on time by anyone.
3\. If questions are half written down without even a few samples of input and output, you'll need time to ask for all the details. Add that to your luck.
4.There isn't time to explain the solution to the interviewer. If you get the correct answer and have to explain it to the interviewer and walk through it before you can solve the next problem, you won't have time to solve the following one. Take a look at the time of actions listed above and calculate it yourself. You might be out of luck!
5\. Hopefully, you have an intervewer who is articulate and speaks at a good pace , getting straight to the point without misunderstanding you. Misunderstanding each other in a heated moment like this might freeze or fry your brain. Good luck! : )
Do the interviews with FAANG if :
\* You want to beat your ego \*
I used to work at Google. The first thing I heard from the tech lead was that they didn't care about algorithms or data structures. They forgot about it after they left school. I also confirmed this with my FAANG interviewers. Their projects do not make extensive use of the algo/data structures for which you are being tested. Do not get me wrong. Set aside algo/data structures, it's an useful test for your coding skills, as being able to code out the problem in almost unreasonable amount of time requires excellent coding skills. If you pass it, you may have better coding skills than many other engineers in other companies that are less demanding in the coding interview. Because, if you pass, you may have set a new benchmark. Yay! I have interviewed for L4/SDEIII at Google, Principal at Amazon and E6 Meta.
The interview with Meta the second time was awful and extremely unprofessional. They lied to me. I had an interview with them three months ago and have yet to pass the waiting period. A recruiter contacted me, asking if I wanted to be interviewed again. I told her on the phone that I had an interview three months ago and was still waiting. She mentioned that the interviewer was impressed with my performance in the last interview, so they wanted to give me another chance. I accepted the invitation and postponed everything I was doing for weeks, including moving, applying for other jobs, in order to focus solely on studying for the interview, and even had a mock interview with them.(The mock interivew was fantastic. As with my previous interview three months ago, the interviewer for the mock interview was incredibly experienced and knowledgeable. I learned a lot about the coding interview for this round.) Then a few days before the interview, they told me I'm not illegible after I told them I would like to apply to a L5/E5 that could make it easier for me to pass the interview.Because I was tested twice during their interviews, I was able to solve at least one problem; unlike L6/E6, L5/E5 may only have one or two to solve. If the interviewer asks less questions after I have given the correct answer, and I explain my optimal solution to the first problem more quickly, as well as walk through it quickly(you are not supposed to run the code to test it), I might have enough time to complete the second problem if I can solve it. It seemed they didn't want to give me a chance to pass. That is why they didn't place me on a appropriate level in the first place, and why they changed their minds and made my status illegible again when I informed them that I wanted to apply to L5/E5. They seemed to want me to choose either complete the harder one L6/E6 or wait 9 months to apply for a low-paying job that I am unlikely to be interested in. Because I chose to apply L5/E5, I lost the opportunity to be interviewed now.
Another thing to keep in mind is that they will request you to rate their recruiting process at the beginning, not at the end of the process and the rating form will expire even before your schedule your mock interview. Of course, every candidate will most likely give them a positive rating because the opportunity was provided. So did I. However, to me it turned out to be a complete waste of my time and money, which deserves zero star. Honestly, I felt like being scammed in some way and I probaby won't recommend to anyone to apply.
I'm not sure about Microsoft, Apple, Netflix, or Nvidia because I never received an interview invitation regardless of the level of SDE I applied for. lol. I feel burned out, and I honestly don't believe I'm their preferred person to hire. If they wanted to recruit me, they would have discussed a suitable position and compensation. The pay I sought for is far from their top tier, but rather around L4/5 for someone with strong coding abilities and 10+ years of IT experience. It is not unreasonable, but unfornately it has never worked out with any of their FTE positions.
\* They like you for some reason(most important), not your skills/experience \*
I hate to say this, but I bet it's true.
HR has a significant impact on the coding interview process. Because, as discussed above, the quality of your interviewer (speed, clarity, variety of questions, etc.) is critical to your success. The problem is that if your HR coordinator can choose which interviewer to interview you, obviously they can influence the outcome of the interview. The HR process is designed to facilitate the interview process but not to make business decisions or affect on the outcome of the interviews.
Similarly to how the interview questions must be carefully chosen, pre-approved, and confidential until the interview time arrives, the interviewer should be treated in the same way to ensure the process is not biased and modified away from the design. By automating the process with automated tools, it is possible that HR will not need to know the name of the interviewer and interviewee while requesting, arranging interviews and passing on the feedback.
Scams exist because of ambiguous and confusing rules/process. Perhaps by doing so, businesses will be able to effectively prevent frauds, bias, and corrupted interivews inside the fuzzy hiring process in the labor market, as well as tear down the wall formed by the flawed HR procedure. I believe there are many talented and skilled people in our countries, and our companies simply need to reform/improve the current hiring process to provide fair opportunities for all and save the labor market from being destroyed by favoritism, unfair competition, and a corrupted/manipulated hiring process.
FAANG jobs often do not involve considerable understanding of algorithms/data or Leetcode problem solving techniques. You are studying a different skill set only for the sake of passing the interview. If you pass, you could get the job if they like you. If you don't, they can hire someone else who did not pass the interview to do the same job. This gives an excuse not to hire someone with exceptional coding abilities who might fail the exam due to a lack of "the luck" discussed above, but they can still hire those with none or very limited knowledge of algorithms/data structures who doesn't have exceptional coding abilities as required in the interview and will almost certainly fail the coding test or workers of any quality to do the job through various types of hiring, as long as they are on the fav list/hiring agenda. However, the quality of the code could make a significant difference. That's where most bugs originate from. Because of faulty logic/design/architecture/configeration, the code frequently needs to be rewritten entirely, and the impact could be massive if the code is released and used elsewhere. Not to mention the security flaws/vulnerabilities that bugs produce.
\* You can afford expensive Lottery tickets \*
If you are young, time and money aren't a major concern. Then find FAANG companies that like you and can offer you a fair opportunity in the long interview process, then it can be worth spending months/years to study something you will not use much at work and look for a result.

**HR == Don't forget the TOXIC Drama Queen!**
I'm wondering if HR selects my resume and then sends it to the teams they choose for me, or if teams receive my resume as soon as I apply? While the latter option would be better, it appears that the first choice. Because that is what happened below. I've also noticed that the interviewers for all of the teams I've interviewed with are all Indians and oddly my interviews with non-Indian interviewers were all canceled due to unknown reasons. Someone appears to be creating drama by putting me on the interviews with hiring managers who show little interest in me during the interview or having me interview with someone who is hostile/crazy thus creating drama between me and Indians.
March, 2024
I've been interivewed for a month with almost 10 teams.
Here we go:
I'm curious why they keep removing job postings where I'd be a good fit soon after I applied but put me in interviews for jobs that aren't even in my typical stack or canceled the job without explanation after the resume was evaluated, offer was discussed and interviews was scheduled, and why they are delaying hiring process while quickly filling positions where I'd be a good fit and the hiring teams are very interested in interviewing me.
They removed many job postings I applied but didn't update my status. Strangely, those removed job postings are still in my active job application list with the status of "Under Review" on their site, but when I click on them, I get a page saying that the position is no longer available.
If you do not want me to apply for your jobs, then do not interfere with my interviews/job search/networking and don't ever touch my linkedin again(Tell your partner to recover my linkedin account or let me create a new one)
It's difficult to tell what the job is from their generic job postings. Not to mention what the requirements are. Got rejected from the interviews were not technical nor professional. I received an illegal question, such as "where I was born". Dang!
\[ I've lived in the states for nearly as long as I've lived in my birthplace. America is my second home and my country, where I received my advanced education—the best education of my life. It seems I became a citizen a long time ago, and I don't recall all of the oaths in the ceremony, but I do remember some words: "Our traditions are your traditions." "Your traditions are ours..." One of the most important traditions I learnt here that I will never forget is "Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness". It has become a tradition for me since I first learnt it, and it will continue to be so for as long as I live, despite the fact that I have to fight my way to keep them from being destroyed by either bitches/scrumbags here or outside of the country. Because I love and really believe in the traditions that built this country, which has protected all of us and provided incredible opportunities for all of us, whether born here or arrived here legally, and it is possible to make an amazing life here through hard work and talent but not via theft, scam, bullying, or racism, as long as we continue to honor the traditions. This may not be possible in other countries. That's why we do not want evil individuals, organizations, or governments to take our traditions away from us. \]
May 6, 2024:
Just had an extremely low-quality ridiculous interview:
I was interviewed as a lead with a security engineer manager **Dhira Kaleeswaran** and her technical assistant(Another person will perform the coding interview for her) for her team at Plano, TX.
The interviewer blamed me and nearly yelled at me during the interview for not being able to join the Zoom coding session because of technical difficulties(I was able to only join from my phone) and for not knowing that I needed to share my computer screen in order to continue with the interview. When I asked if I could reschedule due to the technical issues and unexpected requirements, she brought the HR interview scheduler on the call to resolve the technical concerns. She seemed very unreasonable/insane, suggesting that I either complete the interview today no mattter what or be removed from consideration. Of course, the HR scheduler had no idea what or how to address the technical issue. Like me, she didn't seem to know what this interview was about or what the prerequisites were for the interview. As a result, the interview couldn't proceed and couldn't be rescheduled, my application was no longer being considered.
I only had 30 minutes to meet with the hiring manager, so I never thought about the possibility of a coding session—that wouldn't be appropriate for a professional interview as it'd be way too short if adding an coding session. Even though I was given very short notice via email (an hour or so before the interview) that they might extend the interview to an hour if needed, but I was still not told if I needed to prepare in any manner for screen sharing or for any other reason. How am I supposed to know what I should do to prepare for the unexpected new interview requirements?
In addition, asking candidates to share their screen in order to move forward with the coding interview without providing advance notice is very disrespectful about the candidate's data privacy and security. I have taken numerous professional technical coding interviews, including FAANG, and I have never been asked to share my screen—in fact, I don't even have screen sharing software installed on my computer(and I will not allow anyone complete disk/folder access to my computer remotely without being properly prepared). How is it possible that a security team manager has no concerns about personal data security and privacy?
**Clearly, she has no intention of hiring me and rather wanted to embarrass/insult me by assuming she will succeed if I am unprepared.** Another thing to note is that my subsequent rounds of interviews with her supervisors (senior managers and executives) were already scheduled prior to hers. The next round is normally scheduled once you pass the current interview. This indicates that managers, executives, leaders, and engineers at the bank are confident in my abilities, either because they have seen my code (I used to work there and wrote a lot of code) or because they are familiar with me/my code from previous jobs I've had, and I've also been talking at the interviews there over the last month with many other teams. However, it was shocking to me, and probably to them, that the interviewer for this round acted in such an unprofessional and very strange way. I had never met her before and knew nothing about her. There is no need for her to do such things unless she has been told to do so or she is mentally unstable : (
4/30/2024 - 6/11/24
I believe JPMC has decent recruiters, however the "Drama Queens" mentioned above continue to make it difficult for talented/experienced people to get hired. They were trying so hard, it became exceedingly evident that they were doing awful things they are not supposed to do and should be held accountable for their wrongdoings. Below is what has been going on.
There have always been two teams, each with a recruiter reaching out to me one after the other, as if they were competing to hire me. However, one team is serious about hiring me, while the other team is only interested in sabotaging my interview and preventing me from being recruited by the other team. This happened in the exact same way 3 times now. Usually the team looking to hire me has contacted me first, then shortly after completing my recruiter call and awaiting an interview to be scheduled, another recruiter from another team will approach me for a separate position. If I don't respond to the second/fake interview invitation, the fake interview recruiter will pursue me like boys chasing girl, pestering me with emails/cold calling me, and despite the fact that I have not confirmed my interest in the position, she will continue proceed regardless and have the scheduler contact me to inquiry about my availability. This is not a typical/normal behavior for a recruiter? Finally, if I do not succeed in the interview with the first team, the phony interview recruiter will abruptly stop pursuing me, despite the fact that I expressed interest in their job offer, and no interviews will be scheduled. This is definitely not normal! All of this chasing is obviously geared on stopping my interviews with the first team. This happened 3 times in a row in the past month. Unbelievable!
I apologize for listing everyone involved in the process, however, sometimes if we want to find out the truth and address the issues, so that more people can be hired and being treated equally and respectfully, we may need to record everything so that we can analyze it and determine what happened and why. If you ever catch "Drama Queen" doing something wrong, they'll claim they didn't know anything and were making foolish mistakes by accident, but why do so many stupid mistakes keep happening?! As a result, those who should be hired are not getting hired. The work that should be done is not being completed. Should businesses continue to pay for repeated foolish mistakes? Should everyone else continue to waste their time and be traumatized as a result of all the nonsense? Or should we change that? Stop the lies/scams and nonsense, and hold the drama queens accountable for their actions. Return to normal working environment and culture! Can someone please help fix the harassing shit? Just fire or isolate the drama queens who have no skills and can do nothing but make drama, harrass people and prevent them from performing their job tasks or being hired to do the job.
**How many dirty tricks/interview scams do I have to take? When will this shit end? Why can't these filthy cunts/douches be fired for destroying other people's lives? How many good employees were unjustly fired due of them, and their career was damaged in their corrupt networks(organizations with which they have a partnership or for whom they previously worked. I'm not sure if anyone has worked for JPMC their entire career. Most people have worked at other companies before joining, unless they are interns with no job experience). You'll be surprised at how they collude with one another.**
**Over the past three years, I have dealt with trash like this. It's difficult, in my opinion, not to curse at those. I apologized for that! They appear to be non-human, only wanting the worst to happen to people and not giving anyone any break. Anyone could become misanthropic if having to put up with their shit for very long.**

Stef, the recruiter, called me at 1:37pm CDT on Friday, 08/02/204, and asked if she could schedule the interview at 9am CDT instead of 10am CDT, which I gave to her earlier. I accepted. Shortly after receiving her interview invitation, I almost immediately received another invite from team2(Delgado, Marie Fe C [mariefe.c.delgado@chase.com](mailto:mariefe.c.delgado@chase.com) to:devqm [prowork.dev1010@gmail.com](mailto:prowork.dev1010@gmail.com)

date:Aug 2, 2024, 12:14 PM) This is certainly a repeating pattern and not a coincidence anymore. It is recurring because it was successful. I won't be able to get hired if they manipulate the procedure. Brilliant people in JPMC! Let some stupid HR assholes dictate your business!
I thought it would be a technical interview because it was scheduled for an hour, but it was not. I asked one of the interviewers when I could expect to go through the final technical round if I was selected. He advised it is up to HR to decide a time. I was surprised because I had been told by recuiters from HR that it depends on the interviewers' availability. Primary interview question: a list of the libraries and dependencies I utilized for my project a year ago. They don't seem to have reviewed my résumé. They were not aware that, as a result of my employment with JPMorgan, I had not worked for a year following my termination from Bank of America. How am I expected to recall that? Why am I required to remember all of that? As a matter of fact I've never been asked a question like that. That explains, I suppose, why it was a non-technical interview that was arranged by HR once more, the same HR that set up my wrongful layoff, over a year of unemployment because I was blacklisted in their shit HR network, and my stress at work in the toxic environment they created, as well as my year-long illness/survival from COVID after being scammed into traveling to New York for a day's in-person interview for a "good paid" job that lasts less than 8 months. So it's nothing wrong to get my well-paying job back, and tell those cruel mean folks that they can't keep getting away from their wrongdoings to hurt people who have less privilege than them.

**The interviewer questions are completely different than the requirements in the job description. I was not asked about my Python experiences at all but in the job description it requires advanced Python experience. I was asked if I have build Saas application from the scratch then he mentioned this is not a traditional software development work. It's a little bit everything: design, develop, config, onboard, secure applications, security engineer, etc. He said no one has ever done this before and no pattern to follow, you need to create your own solutions. Even though the requirements in the description are quite clear about the skills/experience needed, he couldn't clarify the requirements as he mentioned the project doesn’t even exist yet. It sounded much like the new project they started and moved everyone from my old team to the project, then the project canceled shortly due to no requirements or unachievable requirements and laid off everyone. It's clear that whoever is responsible for this BS only knows how to do things in a certain way by following a pattern. That's presumably why the same BS continues popping up. However, do we have to keep taking such BS? Why can't anyone stop it?**
