why do you think it doesn't demonstrate curiosity? or that it's assumed feigned curiosity?

Do you advocate people should be extended job offers without having f2f (or at least video call) interviews?

Gentlemen, I agree with Paul, hiring, especially today is ritual-theatre. I have been fortunate to have hired ~5000 people directly since the 1980s. The folks that performed the best would fail most hiring tests and artificial HR environs today. It’s hurting tech companies.

So how do you hire people?

Oren, great question sir! Thank you. I ask them what I am doing wrong and the company is doing wrong. What they would do if they were running things. What technology will change the way their mom and crazy aunt live every day. The best hires, I flew out to meet them.

Oren, I have a sort of weird philosophical insight I learned by working with millions of small merchants every day. Your true customers are the people that work with you. We are all in “sales” as we are “selling” our views of the world as it is and the world as we want to see it.

? So that’s your interview question. “What do you think we should do?” And if they answer it well, you hire them. So you do believe in interviews as a helpful indicator of whether to hire or not?

Oren, great question.! I think conversation is more important than scripted interviews. Answering that question start a conversation. Being able to challenge mindsets and being able to lucidly present the positions are of incredible importance. A starting point to high creativity

Oren, I think creativity in any job position is as important as a perceived “technical skill”. Thus one would want to elicit a conversation environment whereby you can determine this. No doubt this is hard to “test for” and the “goggle test” did not elicit higher creativity.
