Yep. Strong negative signal from me. I can’t remember the last time I actually clicked the link. Anyone that thinks that the Medium experience is remotely acceptable is living in a world very different to mine. Just as importantly, the quality does tend to be crappy off-cuts from someone with an obvious content creator fetish.
Wow, what an incredibly low quality article (TL;DR the questions are hard because the interviewer wants to lord it over the candidate) for something behind a paywall. And he ends with a call to upvote and follow, classy.
I find it hard to trust the opinion of any “techie” who writes on Medium personally. It reeks of “I want to be an influencer!” type personalities.
