I think even this model can be gamed.
I interviewed a contractor over video a few weeks ago. Both of us live on camera. The candidate wore glasses and I could see their eyes darting back and forth across their screen while answering questions. There were also a high number of really abnormal pauses before responding.
I'm 99% convinced the candidate was being fed answers by someone else listening in.
- ghaff 4y agoAsk anyone who is involved in certifications. During the height of COVID, a huge amount of effort had to go into preventing remote test proctoring from being gamed--of course often inconveniencing the honest test takers.
- hn_throwaway_99 4y agoNot to be too harsh, and judging by your response you did detect this bad interviewer, but IMO if someone can game your interviews in that manner, you need to re-evaluate how you do interviews. E.g. a big part of our interviews is to ask about previous projects, pitfalls they hit, reasons they made certain technology choices, etc. I'm 100% sure that if the interviewer had no idea what they were talking about and was being fed answers it would be extremely apparent.
- xboxnolifes 4y agoNo idea if this was what was going on, but when I'm interviewing my eyes are moving between 3 things: The camera for eye contact, the interviewer's video so I can read body language, and my notes/resume so I don't forget to say anything.
