That is definitely an underlying problem. Interviews are too short and too stressful to accurately show how good a candidate is. I'm not particularly good in interviews because I get nervous and stumble over my words. It is not at all like a real working environment, so I think any conclusions you draw from one are necessarily flawed. I recently read about Heroku's interview process, and I think it's great that they can invest so much in evaluating their candidates. They give each new candidate a project to work on and make a hiring decision after it's been completed. (See http://www.craigkerstiens.com/2011/12/02/how-heroku-works-hiring/ http://www.craigkerstiens.com/2011/12/02/how-heroku-works-hi...). I also think it's unsustainable as their company grows but I would love to be proven wrong.
