Well done for doing that. It's empowering to bear in mind that you are interviewing them too. If your interviewer is highly unpleasant then why on earth would you want to work for them / a company that thinks its OK to be represented by them. No thanks!
After berating one of my responses, I told him this wasn’t going to work out, that this was easily the most off putting interview I’d ever experienced, but thanks for the consideration.
The dude was stunned, apologized profusely, and we somehow salvaged the last 20 minutes which we spent nerding out on tech and hobbies.
I ended up taking my name out of consideration, but it was a cool experience realizing I can (respectfully but assertively) tell people to fuck off if I need to.
