I had a screen interview that went very well and I was scheduled to go on to the next interview. But as part of setting it up, I received an email stating: Effective 8/27/21, Butterfly Network requires, as a condition of employment, proof of vaccination for COVID-19 subject to accommodation for sincerely held religious beliefs and/or disability. I consider this a clear case of medical discrimination against anyone choosing not to participate in a gene therapy still in experimental trials, and only available under extended Federal EUA.

This was pointlessly long. First there was a call with a recruiter. Then I had an initial (normal) interview, and a product demo. This last bit was actually nice as it gave a lot more context for the position and the company. Then there were three additional technical interviews. All told I wasted at least 6 hours of my life on this. The last three interviews were frustrating and tedious. The people conducting the interviews were simply other developers who all seemed to have no interest in being there nor any evident experience interviewing people. During my "in-depth coding" session, in particular, the interviewer simply sat there saying nothing watching me write code. It's frustrating to again run up against hit or miss live coding exercises. That's simply not how you do development, and it feels like I got screwed by some asinine, nitpicky mistakes. There was no specific feedback for this decision, simply the generic "we have decided to move forward with other candidates" platitude.
