The technical interview stage is a tiny bit too late for wondering if the candidate can write a simple loop.

- hnfong 3y agoBefore you do a technical interview, you send them a website and ask them to write that FizzBuzz equivalent for you, or if you want to be seen to be nice, schedule a 30 minute interview with them and ask the FizzBuzz thing. It doesn't have to be asked during the full technical interview stage.
- johncoltrane 3y agoAgain, I see zero value in those silly tests so I won't force them on anyone, at any stage of the process. That would be a waste of everyone's time.
- paulcole 3y agoWhy would you do fizzbuzz in a technical interview and not have them talk through it in the first 15 minute phone screen?
- johncoltrane 3y agoNot even one minute. Those things are worthless.
- paulcole 3y agoOh sorry, didn’t realize.
