Strange experience I had today, I finished the one month application process for a job, it consisted of 3 interviews for a UI/UX position, the first two were general questions about my experience and how one reacts to criticism, or to phrases like “we have been doing it this way for 30 years”, the last one was an evaluation exercise of the company's system interface (it really looks like a 30 years old software) in all of them I did apparently well. But today the HR person called me and told me that even though the director of technology and the director of project management supported my candidacy, I was not found compatible with the owner of the company, what the hell does that mean? I never talked to the owner. When I asked for details, the nervous person just told me that the previous designer had left for those reasons. I don't know what to think, it was obviously a good position, but possibly I was saved from some crazy megalomaniac boss.
- Be sure the owner is the issue. And that you'd better stay away from that company. He/she's the reason for a system that looks like it's 30 years old...OBBTKN
- Oh no, I thought you had that in the bag!
Sorry to hear, but yeah maybe you dodged a bullet there...grafician - B/C serious response from owner every time logical, meaningful suggestions are put forward: “...but we have been doing it this way for 30 years”prophetone
