Indeed, but then I can’t measure the true positive rate. :) I suppose we’re really talking about having an anxiety disorder that impedes the ability to deliver vs feeling anxious on the day. The former should manifest noticeably somehow, by definition.
As for which companies? Basically any large enterprise except absolute top-tier tech. I wouldn’t necessarily call such people incomponent though - I’m sure they were perfectly good button-pushers within the corporate machine. Low-skill high-specificity.

The former should manifest noticeably somehow, by definition. I'm not really sure what you mean. First, anxiety is on a continuum, so I wouldn't propose a dichotomy here. Second, lots of people have situational anxiety, which I wouldn't call a "disorder". For example, a great fear of public speaking is pretty common. Of course poor performance at some specific task, e.g., an interview or a speech, is manifestly noticeable, but the cause of that poor performance isn't necessarily manifestly noticeable. In other words, you can't necessarily tell whether it was caused by a lack of skill or competence or just temporary anxiety. Or maybe lack of sleep the night before.
