I really liked what my last interviewer did. He did not think of an abstract quiz to test some abstract skills. He took a Problem they where fighting with for some time and we just had a conversation about it.
When can you start?.. Tomorrow.. See you then.
Find someone you can work with on the actual problems you face: work with them during the interview. Just struck me as genius.
I was nervous about my CV not looking too good, he didn't even bother to look at it.
- cr0sh 8y agoIt does sound like a good way to interview a candidate. But I can see from the company's side it being a bit of a potential legal challenge issue. Depending on what the problem is and how deep it goes into the codebase or whatever, you might get into proprietary process information that someone outside the company shouldn't have access to, possible IP access violations, etc. If it can be done in such a way to avoid those pitfalls, then it might be ok. But I bet it's a tricky challenge, and may be why it isn't done often?
