Requiring a CS degree and asking coding questions that boil down to if you've memorised BFS/DFS.
When we were hiring, I noticed people couldn't look past non-CS degree, and so we were effectively turning people with 3+ years of experience and great Github profiles/real world experience away. Because we "wanted the best".
Or having people fail shitty coding "challenges" because they couldn't remember breadth-first search of the top of their heads. Never mind that they knew where to look the algos up, or the role was pretty much full stack web developer.
