> If you're testing for the very rare day, so that your employee has the right answer in their front pocket
On the hard days, the answer has never been seen before, and therefore can’t be in anyone’s pocket. You need to know that you have employees who are smart enough to discover it. Technical interviews are how you find them.
The observation that your employees are motivated by learning opportunities is useful for how you manage them, but this doesn’t tell us how to hire people who can do the job.
