Job seekers are unable to obtain the desired work roles for several reasons. They may go not to have enough work experience and skills required for even a lack of confidence while answering interview questions. A particular job seeker, however, was rejected for a worldly punctuation error.

That’s right. A frustrated job seeker said in an article in Reddit that he had been rejected for a data engineer role in a well -known company. He mentioned that he had answered everything properly during the second cycle of the interview, except a small error.

“I erased the first round, and in the second, I answered everything correctly – except that I forgot a comma between two column names while writing an SQL request in the notepad. The interviewer left for 20 minutes to count on AI and IDE tools, completely rejecting my experience by working with complex analytical requests and building pipelines and the intermediary in his article.

“It was a simple surveillance, not a lack of knowledge, but I have always been rejected for that. Frustrating, to say the least. Any advice on the navigation of my first transition from DA to DE?”

His experience struck the sensitive string of other Redditors, who thought that the job standard was quite hard.

“” The interviewer left for me for 20 minutes “. Does it really happen because of the comma? Why are things like these difficult to believe. I gave and took hundreds of interviews. Never has such a thing happened. Referring is valid but schooling on AI and IDE are not difficult to believe. Who has a lot of time in an interview?” A user asked.

“The interviewer gave you a solid. I received conferences once because I used interchangeable words, the interviewer was waiting for an answer to the manual and it was for an SDE2 role,” said another reditor.

“I just want to say that Indian investigators are the worst! Most of them are right to stir up their own ego,” said a third user.

“Of course, your interviewer is a born genius, who learned the concept of SQL even before his birth. Bad luck for you, that you did not work with them,” said a user in sarcasm.

“One of my friends recently interviewed in a company that asked him to resolve around twenty coding questions in 15 minutes. And these were appropriate questions. Even if these are simple easy questions, type a solution takes up more than a minute. Why even pretend that you hire?” Another user asked.
