I am currently looking for work and already kind of tired of the technical interview process. I have been programming for 15 years professionally. We could save a bunch of time and money if the recruiters and engineers just looked at my resume and looked at my work. The truth is 99 percent of the work I would do is nothing like a technical interview: I have time (with leeway to work overtime), and I have Google/Stack Overflow. Never encountered a problem I could not solve, but there are plenty of problems I have not memorized the solution to.
I don't mind a general interview - I can "talk the talk" - I just hate being asked questions with very specific answers that would require most people to study or memorize beforehand. If I can Google it in a few seconds, it should not be an interview question.
