In an interview a candidate is not in that mindset, at least I am not. Under stress and anxiety it is very difficult to fully understand things and build good cognitive structures in the mind.
The whole thing is broken.
It's a shame because there are good sides to it too.
I had a ‘principal engineer’ at last place who grinded leetcode for 100 days and still failed a leetcode interview. It’s utter nonsense.
A conversation with technical questions and topics should suffice. Hire fast and fire people.
