How do you know they personally solved a problem, rather than just studying someone else’s solution?

I call this the "did they do it or did they sit next to the person who did it" problem.

I find going into the technical details of projects on the candidates CV quickly sorts them out.

I would think that asking for more detail and more "why" versus "how" questions would effectively weed out those people.
