Good point! Seems like the writer has accidentally optimized his interview for narcissists, psychopaths and pathological liers who excel at manipulation, instead of true high-potential young people :)

    It's a job interview not a deposition. Isn't everybody just telling a good story to get the job? I will say that my general opinion is that people being interviewed should be accurate with the truth but can be flexible on the facts.

All interviews except hard technical ones are optimized for liars.

  And even hard technical interviews greatly fail folks who don’t do well under pressure (ie, not at all how typical software is written / projects are conducted in the real world).

    How do people who typically do well under pressure do when not under pressure?
