So... First, interview at Netflix, and then, when you feel comfortable - at the place where you'd actually like to work.

Just got into amazon as a manager (non coding). In the 3rd interview, the hiring manager said "Oh it's your 3rd interview, I'll go easy on ya" and then proceeded to ask me the absolute most difficult and nuanced questions imaginable. It was pretty intense but at the end he said "good job" lol. Got the offer yesterday.

Thanks for reminding me that I’m not risking my life. It’s not like failing a coding interview means you’re gonna get shot in the head by the recruiter.

I relate to this so badly.<br><br>I forgot how to map over a list of items in JSX. Literally blacked out and forgot how to write a ternary. It got so bad that I began laughing and muttering about how much I hate interviews. Top 3 most embarrassing moments of my life.

It's so hard to even get an interview in the first place. I've applied to several roles at netflix, amazon, google, meta, and about 800 other listings on every site I can find. No interviews, despite having a substantial portfolio and a good resume.

I've LARPed as a team lead for years and interviewed dozens of people. Some of them are super freaked out in these situations. I had two guys who basically forgot how to speak, even though it was clear to me for other reasons that they are intelligent and competent.<br><br>I'm one of those people.<br>In "exam" situations I almost always brain freeze and hyperventillate, so I need to stop talking for 5-10 seconds and focus on breathing. Even though I'm a cool, accomplished, brave, hypercompetent, manly man, I just shut down during interviews. So it is really difficult for me to sell myself.<br>Nowhere else in life or during work this happens. If I need to talk to a gajillion dollar contract Customer and explain to them why their gajillion dollar service is down, I'm completely fine and on top of everything.<br><br>As an interviewer I always try to reduce interview jitters in creative ways.
