Ask HN: Do you like code pairing interviews? I hate them
I dislike code pairing interviews. Specially ones where you haven't even talked to the team, don't know anything about the people they just give you a laptop connected to a tv so that they can sit infront of you and watch you code. Maybe I am the only one but I can't perform when someone is watching me or analyzing what I am doing. I would prefer if they gave me a set of tasks. A github repo where I commit code and then I submit the code and we can discuss what I did and my reasoning. But when I am being watched I forget everything. It sucked :(
