I am miserably bad at soft-skills interviews and never get past this round. Been over a year since I've had somebody actually try to assess my technical competency in any real capacity. I'm also getting maybe 1 INITIAL interview every 3 months right now because of this AI screening stuff and I just haven't felt like re-writing my resume to game them. | ||

IMO, soft-skills interviews more a test of your storytelling abilities than anything else. At Google, people often used to joke about candidates who cannot even pass the Googleyness interview, which is supposed to be the easiest of all Google interviews. | ||

> miserably bad at soft-skills interviews Is that because of an actual lack of soft skills or is it because the interviews are bad? > I just haven't felt like re-writing my resume to game them. Not defending the AI interview assistance BS, but if you wanted a job bad enough then you'd eventually do this, not the latest after several months? | ||

It could be that those HR teams are engaging in some busy work - pretending to be looking for candidates so they/their company looks busier. | ||
