There's a delicate balance that often lies in hiring process.
There are people who simply refuse to understand generics and/or stream APIs. Which are to (most) programmers more readable then the same logic being drawn out in a loop.
Meanwhile some other programmer would just write code golf and brag about it.
At the end of the day, it should be about enforcing a coding style that defines what you can or can't do. Adding final to all variable that can be final for instance is a great start.
