I'm sorry you went through that. I had an interview recently that asked no technical questions, only logic puzzles like "princess is behind door number 1, monster is behind door number 2" scenario shit. I mentioned I'm extremely bad at these, but I have ten years of experience that I can speak to. I went ahead and did the quiz and got ghosted anyways. The silver lining is we get to watch companies like this become landfills. Cheers.

Next time just refuse to dance and end the interview on the spot. I do that and it feels great to see the light dying in their eyes when they realize you're the one "dumping" them.

Feels good for 15 minutes while you burn a bridge and don't proceed at the interview. Presumably they have other candidates, they probably don't even remember you a couple of days later.

It's a matter of not wasting each other's time and energy on futile things. If it's not going well for one reason or another, better to politely end it and let each other do something else with their day.

[dudul]

Yeah, the way I see it it's the stupid company using brain teasers like these that just burnt a bridge.

Presumably you have other interviews.

If terminating an interview early 'burns a bridge', then I've 'dodged a bullet'.

I for one think that logic puzzles are a reasonable filter for many positions.

I used to be very good at logic puzzles and have steadily been getting worse. Yes I have wider perspective now, but my raw problem solving ability has deteriorated. I can understand if a company wants to maximize problem solving for certain roles.
