Good tips. I've noticed a weird change with interviews lately. 13, 8 and 5 years ago I'd have multiple offers after 2-3 interviews, this time around half of them feel like I'm applying for a best buy position (how would you plan a bachelor party? What are your strengths?)and interviewers seem more interested in making themselves feel smart, at least the American ones in the south. You have to learn how to interview and deal with recruiters that don't know the difference between an API and a language. I've had to go into interviews without even having a summary of the position because they're in such a rush to make a commission.
