This is so painful to read after having recently gone through the gauntlet of Bay Area tech interviews myself. It seems like all the companies follow this exact same pattern of how interviews are conducted and few stray from the standard, not realizing how intimidating the entire process can be for the uninitiated. It's easy to say "the interview process is broken", but how do we fix it?

Companies are duplicating effort to find the same algorithm masters when we can just have a cert that demonstrates your mastery of algorithms. Have different certs for different specialties. Then actual job interviews can just be a culture check. And the great thing about certs is that they're relatively low pressure. You can always take it again if you fail or score lower than you feel youre capable.
