I somewhat agree. I've been through a lot of terrible interviews. The last year or so I've started walking away when they get too annoying. For example, I refuse take home exercises. I used to do them, I don't anymore. Too much work to do on spec. But everything involves trade offs. By being very selective of what I will put up with during the process, I've lost some opportunities. If I NEEDED a job, I would suddenly be much more tolerant. Either way, I don't see the industry as a whole learning to interview better. When I refuse a particular exercise, or drop right out of the process, they don't blame themselves. They just move on to hazing the next candidate and hope for the best.
