In a few cases, I really liked the company and what they were doing, got along wonderfully with the hiring manager. Then bombed their leetcode BS.

So when I say I’d politely tell them why they’re fucked, it’s actually out of a genuine desire to help the company.

But you’re right, I’m also thankful that they showed their red flag so visibly, early enough, and I’m happy to not move forward!
