The first couple people from the team to interview me were excellent and polite. However, when I got to the final interview with the hiring manager, they were distracted or preoccupied with other work and were not listening from the very beginning of the interview before I had even started. I'm not sure if they were having an off day. At the beginning of the coding question, I suggested two possible solutions or good design choices which the interviewer didn't hear. I felt like I was talking to myself. At the time I forged ahead with one of my two approaches. Near the end of interview, the hiring manager suddenly told me I should have used the other approach and had not even heard me suggest it prior. I repeatedly had to remind the hiring manager what line of code I was referring to as they would stop paying attention for minutes at a time and had no idea what I was doing.
