I understand that you have no control over who you're interviewing with but... if you're a good fit and the interviewer leaves thinking you're a terrible fit that's a sign of a bad interviewer. Obviously there are non-proficiency things you can do to skew that perception (bad hygiene, late, obviously disinterested) but a good interviewer (especially one used to working with developers) should be good at getting by all the social awkwardness to evaluate your problem solving.

And yes, most large companies have terrible interviewers.

Yes agreed that it is a problem with interviewers, but in practice all the responsibility falls on the interviewee.

I've never once seen an interviewer getting better in any company I've worked for. What happens is they just move onto the next interviewee.

I refuse to believe that all the interviewers I had over the course of 6 months were all terrible. It must be something about the process that is pathologically broken (especially when getting hired at larger companies)

I mean... if the interview process is even a little broken then doesn't that mean that over time worse and worse interviewers will get hired, making for worse and worse interviews meaning that worse and worse interviewers get hired...
