Interviewed by r&d manager, was interviewing for researcher role but the interviewer was interviewing me for software engineer role. When I informed them of the correction, I was told the role requires Phd, but their phd people don't even have the basic skills to convert theory into practice, to refactor, and productionize their work, what is the point of a phd if they need help with everything. The company likes to mess around with candidates and use incorrect job ads that oversell on the role.
