Truly bizarre interview. I actually wondered if the guy was high. He asked a lot of proprietary questions about the tech at the company where I work currently and dodged any questions I had about him or his company that were intended to help me better understand the position. Then, without asking what kind of connections I had, he said the only reason he wanted to talk to me was because he thought I had more connections. Complete waste of my time--if he specifically is only hiring people connected to X, then this could have easily been asked on a quick phone call to save us both time. Just a truly bizarre experience. I agree with another poster that the CEO really didn't seem to understand why either one of us was there. Plus not a single person in the office was smiling. That's a huge red flag for me.

I had 2 interviews with the CEO. The first went very well. The 2nd interview included his Managing Director. The CEO was really strange on the 2nd interview, which he insisted be on a Saturday morning! I asked him a question and he didn't answer it. I thought he was odd and passive aggressive. I did not get an offer and I definitely dodged a bullet.
