This article doesn't mention the best interview method of them all: the presentation interview. Have the interviewee prepare a 15 minute presentation of a technical topic of the interviewee's choice. At the end of that presentation the team should have a general idea of the person's thinking speed/experience/communications skills. Basically all you'd ever need to know about the person. In my version of a perfect world, each company would have a "speaking hour" designated once per week. Each speaking hour would feature two or three speakers, each with 15 minutes to speak about something interesting they've worked on. The idea being if you wanted to work for a company, you'd apply to speak at their next "speaking hour". If you show up and give your talk and the audience approves your talk, then its understood you're hired.
