"The restaurant industry figured the hiring way better than the software engineering industry! They test both professional skills and cultural alignment! In other words, they test your ability to deliver. They do not ask you to explain a recipe by heart or describe how you would chop the onion. They ask you to do it. Live." It's ironic that the article points out the error in blindly imitating others and then we get this entirely apples and oranges 'recipe for effective interviews'. What are the fixed costs of having a 'live' chop the onions and shoot the breeze on slack for software companies? For a restaurant, they simply need a bit of tabletop for the 'new workstation'. - All onions are pretty much the same in one industry; in our industry, we famously have 'a new way to slice onions' every other day! Let's not even discuss the variety of knives .. - What 'secret sauce' info is disclosed during the 'live' getting to know each other? Can we just put candidates in company slack and check out how it works? Seems problematic.
