1- It started with the common prompt "Tell me about yourself," to which I responded with a structured overview of my relevant professional background. 2- I was then asked general AppSec questions. Despite giving answers that I was confident in, the interviewer incorrectly challenged some of them. It became apparent that there was a disconnect in our understandings of certain topics. 3- The code review exercise for an open-source project with vulnerabilities was conceptually a good test of practical skills. However, the effectiveness of this exercise was compromised when the interviewer incorrectly disputed one of my correct identifications of a security flaw. 4- Further AppSec questions were asked, but the interviewer's lack of depth in understanding became evident when they misinterpreted some of the subjects they inquired about, leading to confusion. In conclusion, while the company's emphasis on security was clear, the technical interview experience was disappointing due to the interviewer's insufficient grasp of the interview content. This not only led to unnecessary corrections but also made it challenging to demonstrate my expertise effectively.
