Book Description
Companies need to evaluate their candidate's technical ability. However, in the Software, Big Data and Computer Science industry, a lot of interviewers are more focused on asking and setting pedantic, self aggrandizing, patronizing, off-topic, irrelevant tests and questions that will mean that your company will lose out on ideal employees. It appears that in most tech companies, the need to weed out fakers from real talent has created an industry of interviewing that is more about geek cred and niche technical ability of staff rather than discovering talent for innovation, creativity and communication. In this book I outline a number of examples inspired by real world experiences demonstrating the ridiculous nature of technical tests and questions I have a encountered in my 14+ year professional history. I hope this book will help you change your approach to technical interviewing and find talented humans rather than dancing monkeys to join your organization. If you liked the book or have other suggestions, please leave me a review.
