This is how you know 'coding interviews' are a scam for your time. The candidate is probably better than the majority of so-called 'senior' engineers after looking at his long list of GitHub contributions alone. Every time I ask this, almost all of them avoid the question and do very poor in the interview. A great classic filter that works. Either you ace the coding interview with little OSS contributions to show, or get >75% of the questions and show significant OSS or non-OSS projects that you've made which are useful and relevant for the job. > Because I can't, of course, become a junior now—feels like I'm dealing with a Catch-22 situation where I need prior experience to gain my first experience. Given that a 100% coding interview result and OSS contributions still isn't enough for these companies. You might as well make your own experience by building a startup.
