My solution to being a bad interviewer was to be a company cofounder -- an option available to me due to the confluence of - having a reasonable network from college of entrepreneurial folks who trusted in my abilities and wanted to start something new - confidence in working quite well with people (can be reasonably replaced with a confidence in being driven and getting things done by yourself) - confidence in learning what i need to do get things done - low stress coefficient: i tend to work well under pressure - a good appetite for risk: i don't balk at the instability and existential risks of building a company from the ground up. Doesn't necessarily work for everyone, but I also think being a founder is not often considered as an option when the interview/job landscape is looking bleak (it was a last resort for me too, after struggling for too long trying to get a cubicle somewhere).
