The interview focused heavily on credentials that didn't seem relevant to the position. I was asked for my SAT score (which I took 9 years ago), questioned about a percentile from a test I sat at age 13, and pressed on the ranking of my undergraduate institution. My master's degree was treated dismissively. The framing suggested it was viewed mainly as an immigration route rather than on its merits. The overall tone felt more like an attempt to find reasons to disqualify than a genuine effort to understand whether I could do the job. I left with a poor impression of how the company evaluates people. Advice to management: Consider whether your screening criteria actually predict job performance. Asking adults for standardized test scores from years or decades earlier, and judging graduate degrees by the prestige of an unrelated undergrad, signals a process that isn't focused on the work.
