Those interview questions, ridiculous all of that ... "late night office parties" I mean WTF seriously??

Anyway I really think this works both ways - this is also a way for you to know which companies you do NOT want to work for, so the "filtering" is also on your part, not just on theirs ... if you don't fit into the "culture" of a team then you won't be happy.

This just shows how important diversity and inclusiveness are. But practically speaking I think as one gets older it becomes an ever more attractive proposition to become a contractor/freelancer, because I think age is less of a thing when you work in that kind of role (even more so when you work remote).
