What we should/shouldn't do doesn't matter. The fact is that because CS has exploded in the past decade, and because there are hundreds of applicants to most jobs, there needs to be some sort of programming litmus test to thin the herd. That's why I'm OK with FAANG companies having multiple rounds of interviews; they need to because so many people want to work there. What is the alternative? The problem is when some dogshit startup that got funding 2 weeks ago copies Google's process. That I don't know how we can fix.
