> no strong noes

This is the problem. It allows one interviewer with a pet peeve to torpedo an otherwise excellent hire. Where I work, whoever ends up on the wrong side of the majority needs to make a case good enough to convince the majority to switch. Being strongly in the minority is not good enough.

The culture of accepting high false negative rates leads to the "no weaknesses" hiring the GP was complaining about.
