Where I work we ask some candidates in client-facing roles how they’d respond to a hypothetical email from a client about a situation they’re likely to face in the job. I know an LLM can easily generate a pretty OK and boring reply. But I want to get to know how the person we’re considering would answer it so we can talk about their approach in their next (and final) interview. We ask people nicely to not use an LLM and explain our reasoning. They can still use one if they want of course.
