At no point in time was I ready to live through the many sharp ups and downs of this 12-year-long Odyssey of mine.
Why ?
Becoming a goo...

I ticked all the hearts and unicorns and other possible reactions and moderation tools, but can I please double-upvote and double-bookmark this excellent article? This should be pinned to DEV's home page and LinkedIn should do likewise.
Thanks a lot Ingo !
A nice is comment is worth 42 unicorns reactions
I have lots of articles to write on this topic, the next one will be about Google and what happened with the brain teasers thing.
Such a good question! Thanks for sharing those out-of-the-norm hiring processes.
I stole this one from my friend Marilyn
C’est trop difficile [to say the least,…] partager un histoire comme ça-la. 👆
Merci, et bon courage / (esseyez) restez forte, donc. Petit-a-petit, on va reussir!
Merci!
Nothing better than talking to a recruiter who doesn't care about you at all, just needs to check if whatever you say fits into their checklist. I once had a video call and wanted to show the recruiter my projects on GitHub and posts I wrote - to better explain what I am good at and what I do - they just plain stopped me and didn't want to see them, didn't care, I was 90% sure they wanted to tell me "don't waste my time on that" - then returned to their predetermined list of questions. I was stunned.
I love companies that have 'superhero'/'my role is not listed' positions. Something like that tells me that they are willing to innovate or find proactive people with solutions to their problems they didn't think of upfront.
That sound like a clever system indeed, but the tech disruptors are always on the verge of disrupting eveything and change the world for the better, so I'm pretty sure they willl think of better ways to hire real soon.
What ? Brain Teasers ?
Ok, forget what I said. /sarcasm
