The bikeshedding engineer is exactly what Google or Amazon is looking for. Nothing wrong with that either, I just take issue with the entire industry standardizing around that type of engineer.
- freyr 8y agoMy impression was the opposite. You're given a problem, there are usually a few clear-cut ways to solve it. You're expected to find an optimal or near optimal solution fairly quickly, and explain your approach clearly. That's it. I've thought the more open-ended, unstructured interviews lead to more bikeshedding opportunities.
