It's not clear what any of this has to do with unethicalness, but I'll respond anyway: > If you care at all about bias and diversity, you may want to learn more about how to construct interviews that reduce both. Interviews, whether formal or informal, are a very bad way to evaluate the skills of job candidates. The best predictor of future performance is past performance; research the candidates as much as possible. But in any case, hiring is a crapshoot. Interviews are useful for getting to know each other, seeing if you want to work with each other, and asking clarificatory questions. > On the topic of hiring, a "Job Simulation" is one of the most objective measures, which is pretty close to what a practical test is. Tech sector job interviews assess anxiety, not software skills. https://news.ncsu.edu/2020/07/tech-job-interviews-anxiety/ https://news.ncsu.edu/2020/07/tech-job-interviews-anxiety/
