The industry is not interested in people from the street. We are always interested with people with years or decades of experience.

The problem arise from the discrepancy between how the expertise is and what the interview process searchs for. They are not the same thing or even signal each other.

I hate interviews. Just the idea of need for a job search is hurting my bones.

I did this on both sides multiple times in 2 different countries with different work ethics which are not SF or USA. I still not sure what are the good signals are. It is a lottery for both parties.

Also my concern is not about this, it's about peoples perception of the process. Some, like you consider preparation for the exam, but not the work ok. Some don't. And they both can't understand each others views. We have our perception filters tuned only for own.
