Hmm. I have majors in CS and electronic engineering and minors in maths and physics. In EE I had jobs without any interviewing at all; just sending my diploma and resume. The CS interviewing system is highly broken compared to anything else I have been in touch with. I have been a software engineer, electronics engineer, ceo, cto, pre-sales and some more things. Software engineer interviews are sad shitty affairs; it’s easier to land a cto job than a developer job for me. It’s just dumb and companies who do it deserve to get told to stick that job somewhere.
- BiteCode_dev 3y agoThis is what I mean. Make a test for competences, and people will complain. Don't make a test, and people will complain. Make the interview process short and to the point, and people will complain. Make it long and thorough, and people will complain. No matter what you do, there is always someone on HN that will tell you that you're doing it wrong. I've yet to pass an interview process that I would qualify as good, myself. So if it's the case, it's probably because it's not very common. Turns out hiring is not a solved problem, and it's easy to be a critics when you don't have to do it.
