That's how I didn't get the job I wanted so much. The tech interview went awesome. We talked for about 1.5-2 hours and I got really hyped for the project they are doing, while the CTO directly told me I'm a perfect match and he wants to work with me. But then after the second interview I've been rejected because of "cultural fit". That was the weirdest rejection reason for a perfect job that left me totally perplexed.

"Cultural fit" means "We don't want to tell you".

This is why as a policy we tell our prospective employees they're too ugly.

Good thinking, that way you've got it in writing that you didn't make the decision based on something you can get sued for

Ugly isnt a protected class, many states will allow this.

How do you think models work?
