Maybe you should administer the test towards the end of the interview after you've gotten to know the candidate a bit and allowed for time for their nervousness to wear off.
- Lambent_Cactus 14y agoIf 80% of candidates are failing, you want to ask it right at the start, to minimize the time you waste interviewing people who aren't qualified.
- talmand 14y agoBut that seems to assume that FizzBuzz is the defining test of a candidate. I guess if that works for the interviewer then that's the way to go.
- JoeAltmaier 14y agoA minimum competency test is reasonable. Better to know such things before the interview stage IMO; its a terrible waste of everyone's time to show up, fail fizzbuzz and leave.
