There is a hiring infrastructure which is sort of like those dating apps that say they want you to find true love but really they want you to keep dating. I am thinking of a lot of HR at companies, recruiters, and people that enjoy interviewing. I have worked at startups that weren't really growing that fast but we're always interviewing to fill in the churn. Interviewing feels productive, feels like a company is growing. They say: We only accept the best so any test is reasonable. This tends to discount people's accomplishments and the idea that smart people can learn. The internet makes it possible screen a zillion candidates, so like dating it feels like there are a million fish in the sea. Why value anyone's time when there is so many to consider? I was thinking about putting my CV for a very senior role and before you could put it in they made you take this like web IQ test. Seriously? I would worry about anyone who go through that for a job that expected more than ten years high level experience. Pass.
