Interviews requiring genius-level capabilities for doing boring daily trivial stuff. Quite deceptive. There is a rush in SAT and automated tests (e.g. hackerrank) stuff that is getting crazy. Anyway, no matter how good you do in SAT/programming tests, you may be discarded because of your personality, political views, or even because of plain xenophobia. Brave new world! :-D
