While these items might be true, as an interviewer you are not trying to solve for “find all good candidates” but, instead, are solving for “find one good enough and better than the rest”.
Anymore, I love that I have a clear path on how to obtain a very high six figure gig with plenty of resources to get there. I’ll gladly play that game, with enthusiasm. When others focus on the plight of the interviewee, others are leetcoding, white-boarding, practicing, reading up on blind, etc.
- xwolfi 7y agoDepends, I don't think you care all that much about coding skills. You don't want a cripple, but you want a diva even less. You can take a learning developer with an amazing passion for learning, and building shit while you must refuse a guy who say he's leet coding and shit on everyone trying to learn from him :D Depends what industry you work in, but where I am, it's more about accepting to switch team and language during hiring freeze, spend a week or two on legacy retro spec'ing, tell business users that you failed your impossible deadline, and fix your own crap honestly. Nothing leet about it, just brutal honesty, courage and loyalty to get a six figure where I am.
