Comment on Interviews Can Be a Terrible Way to Identify Good Programmers

Comments

But I don't think that a bad interview will mislead a programmer.

Thruth is lot of companies out there are mediocre. And this shows on how they recruit.

Everyone wants a "rockstar" for some average CRUD app, but they don't seem to understand that most programmers will do fine building them. Even people who interview badly.

I think that programmers should be the ones taking a detailed look at companies to see if they are a fit with the dev team instead of the other way around. After all, if you don't feel well whithin a team, how will you do your best?
