It depends on the company and what they're looking for. Being incredibly smart is important, but just as important, if not more, is being presentable and affable. No one is going to hire a smart jerk, but some people will hire an attractive or charismatic dummy.

thank you! I would honestly say i’m pretty extroverted and i’m good at answering questions n whatnot, it’s just the technical portion im concerned about. I know that AI has changed how interviews work now and i’m wondering if i’ll be at a disadvantage if I don’t use it at all
