There were 10 requirements. It was a niche job that I was skilled at. For 1 I had life experience with end results (do ppl have life/volunteering experience that applies to job requirements? I'm nearly 40 and don't). For the other 9 I could link them to exact work matches - except all are under NDAs with different clients, so had to be described vaguely.
The company I was interviewing with weren't impressed, which was ironic as I'd had to sign a NDA prior to the interview.
They also wanted to inspect code I'd written - can they see a project? Well no, because it's written for a commercial client. What can I show them on GitHub? Nothing helpful as I develop in private repositories and what is public is experimental code doodles.
How do you handle strict NDAs and private projects?
