This is where we differ.
What they separate isn’t chaff from wheat, but those who can do a specific type of interview from those who can’t. The latter aren’t chaff and the former aren’t wheat.
The only time these kinds of questions/tasks are suitable is if they genuinely represent the work being hired for.
Our opinions on this differ, and that’s fine, so whatever works for you.
