UI/User Experience Design Manager was asked...30 July 2018

Even though the position was a Sr Manager -- and I have 20+ years experience - I was given a "homework" assignment more suitable for recent grads and interns. If I was interviewing for CFO, would they have given me a math quiz?

I tried to answer in far more detail than was asked. After I was told I would not be moving forward, I politely asked for feedback Not only was I not given any, they wouldn't even respond to tell me it was against their policy not to give feedback (something I later learned from Glassdoor). Maybe I rejected because of age? Less

You were not rejected because of age. I was hired by Tableau at 58 years of age, and there are lots and lots of gray-haired people around. It is the friendliest situation for people in their 50's and 60's and even 70's that I have ever encountered in my long, long career :). Less

Walked them through a project and some screenshots. They declined a week later and did not provide feedback even after I asked. In fact, not reply at all. This is after asking me to do a presentation in a week's notice. Not a great experience. Less
