Interview
Everyone was pleasant when I met them. I cannot stress that enough. The technology they use is not on my resume and I told them at each step of the interview process, including on the phone before I met with anyone face to face, that it was not my focus. I know similar technologies but not the technology they use explicitly. They could have eliminated me as a candidate before I had to go into the house they use as an office. I liked the people I met and they told me I was a good cultural fit but they went with someone who knew the technology they used instead of myself. I felt like they wasted my time and they could have eliminated me as a candidate before I spent around 6 hours of my time preparing and going to multiple face to face interviews. 6 hours is at least $500 at my rate and at the rate they are paid they cost their own company at least as much or more by occupying their employees' time with my candidacy.
