Surely you could use a random number generator to do this?

I generally support this- as a FAANG employee I sometimes think an RNG would be a much better signal than a lot of our interview voodoo. At least then we wouldn't be hiring unlucky people!

That would be nice, because it wouldn't leave rejected candidates thinking they did something wrong. The whims of a panel of interviewers isn't necessarily different from an rng anyway.
