Comment on Ask HN: What % of your job interviewees pass FizzBuzz type questions?

Comments

I think that the lower the percentage, the more you need to improve your screening prior to getting the candidate in. It's just wasting your time and theirs.

I would love to say that you can tell from a CV whether or not they could pass FizzBuzz, but it's not true. I've interviewed MScs and PhDs that could not do FizzBuzz. Seriously.

The phone screener is your friend.
