> They literally had people with 1-2 years of experience conducting interviews last I remember.

I interviewed at a place where 75% of the interviewers didn't show up.

The only dude who did, had started the day before...

This sounds fascinating. What kind of software/industry?

It was at Puppet Labs.

I am a former employee of BladeLogic, and the founder of Puppet used to work there. In 2008, BladeLogic's largest customer hired me (Bank of America.)

BofA outsourced my job, so I needed somewhere to work, and I reached out to Puppet.

I had an interview schedule with four Puppet employees. 75% of them didn't show up. The one person who DID show up had started the day before my interview.

You can find me on LinkedIn, all the history is there.

I have friends who had the same experience for Goldman Sachs as a new grad Dev.
