I tried doing that last time I hired and I think generally speaking makes a good experience for candidates, BUT when you have those 2-3 individuals that have really high opinions of themselves it can get tiring for the hiring manager (myself), because they won't accept the answer anyway and will keep asking and ultimately give some bad review in Glassdoor etc
- bbarn 3y agoI don't have too much issue because when it's bad, it's usually because they've failed pretty hard on tech screens for questions that have absolute answers. I have on one occasion had to pull up my IDE and run code and prove my questions to an argumentative candidate, but generally people appreciate the explanations when they are wrong and tell me they've learned something.
