So instead of selecting people who can do algorithmic problem solving well (under pressure), you’re selecting people who can bullshit well (under pressure).

I’m not convinced it’s really an improvement. I’ve worked with too many people who are great bullshitters but terrible engineers, who sailed through on their charisma.

But that’s why most companies have a mix of technical and behavioral interviews.
