I think about hiring a lot and I see a lot of companies doing things that I think are completely opposed to their own goals. Specifically around technical talent where, given the current market, the goal is almost always to out-compete other companies by finding good candidates that others would have turned away because of cargo-cult awful interview processes and standards.
This looks great from what's printed on the page.
The question that jumps out at me from reading the interview prep screenshot is: How often does a candidate fail the "work on your own project" part simply because the people watching them have no interest in the problem space or worse, no idea what's going on? I just don't see how that type of interview could be scored equitably across a range of candidates.
Is that considered a failure on culture grounds? I'm highly suspect of basically all culture related hiring standards.
