Seems the reports of the death of the technical interview have been greatly exaggerated. I remember reading a post on TechCrunch that announced the death of coding interviews as a way to assess candidates. The premise of the article was that since the whole purpose of an interview was to serve as a proxy for actual performance, due to the lack of the tools and infrastructure to easily observe and measure the latter, but now that we do, “it is the height of cargo-cult stupidity not to use them”.
