Just went through a round of interviewing. . . it's laughable how the coding interviews go. I did well on some, OK on others and bombed a few too.
Yet, in every case, the interviewers put so much weight and faith in the coding challenges. I'm like really people? Can you really tell how good or bad I am in a 35 minute live coding challenge? When I'm working I sometimes make mistakes, sometimes many mistakes and then other times, I crank out a lot of decent code with few mistakes.
