The problem is the number of people that fail FizzBuzz or morally equivalent interview questions. It's so bad I think companies that don't ask candidates to code could skip interviewing about general background entirely, replace it with a 15 minute trivial coding exercise, hire anyone who passes, and be noticeably better off.
Maybe this isn't universal, but I'm used to most applicants being hopelessly unqualified.
- greenleafjacob 10y agoIs this actually true? How many candidates have you failed for FizzBuzz specifically? Personally I've found it to be almost always passed. My previous company would ask for a simple implementation of pow() and strpos() and that had a decent filter rate.
