Prickly

Today, I was rejected from a job for which I was perfectly qualified, as it was in my area of expertise. The interviewer was the most annoying prick and kept on talking and "helping" me debug from the moment I opened the technical task. I ended up asking him to please shut up so that I could think for a minute. FML

See if you can find another recruiter from the same company on LinkedIn and tell them about your experience. It might not get you the job but you might be able to save someone else from that guy.

That wasn't a technical test; that was a psychological test. The interviewers wanted to see how well you could keep your cool around annoying pricks who try to mansplain your job to you.

If you're telling people to shut up, you are not perfect for the job. If you were perfect, you'd be able to ignore the prick while pretending to acknowledge their jibber-jabber.

If you'd have to work with that guy not getting job is probably better.
