Despite clearing technical and managerial rounds, i called for a face to face interview I don't have any idea whether it would be a hr discussion or client or internal term. my face-to-face interview experience was deeply unprofessional. A gender-based “joke” was made by senior leadership, implying I chose QA because I am a woman. This shut me down mentally and shifted the interview away from my skills and experience, my mind went blocked after hearing this from very senior person in the organisation. The interviewer also showed no interest in understanding how I work or how I could add value to the project, focusing instead on rigid expectations without real discussion purely about what he wants to hear. This raised serious concerns about leadership, interview standards, and company culture. I never faced this kind of situation ever in my interview.
