I tried one of these video screening interviews once. It’s very unfriendly to the neuro-atypical. Gave up about halfway through, because I was on the verge of a stress-induced panic attack and figured the job wasn’t worth it with this kind of hoop to apply.

I get a lot of “can you just make me a checklist I can follow.”

I’m teaching computer networking and this hits the nail on the head. My students are plenty willing to learn answers to multiple choice questions. However, it is like pulling teeth trying to give them anything even slightly open ended. Sorry, at your real job the boss isn’t going to come up to you in a panic and say “the network went down, which of these 4 answers is the reason?”

Troubleshooting, researching, and having curiosity are all important in this field. I’m having difficulty getting them to see that, or care.

They can’t do that, it’s illegal!

Can he please hire someone to teach him how to smile? He’s got the money for it.

I get that it’s a comic but this doesn’t feel like a conversation that would ever occur in real life. Granted I don’t hang out with programmers or mathematicians so maybe it’s more plausible than you would think.

Atomicrops is also worth checking out if you want more Gungeon than Vampire Survivors.

It gets really good after 10 hours thousand dollars.
