      We lost candidates due to recruiter screens like this when I was at Google. Not sure why they persist in doing them http://www.gwan.com/blog/20160405.html …

      My favorite bogus recruiter screen question was "order the these operations by latency". Answer on sheet was 20 years out of date.

      We got the question fixed, but our recruiters had been filtering for the literal opposite of what we wanted for years. The opposite. Years.

          Whenever I hear "we can't lower the bar" I find at least one laughable filter in the process; often the literal opposite of what they want.

          The HN comments have Google employees who claim it's implausible this ever happened to anyone, along with employee who says it's common.

          The thing when the *engineer* interviews is that you can save the wrong answer by explaining your way of thought and learn a lot

          Yup. I find it totally bonkers that any successful company has recruiters doing "technical" screens.

          Microsoft had become this way by the mid 1990s. Q's like "what's diff between an operator and an operand" appearing in phone screens

          operator rhymes with alligator, operand rhymes with contraband.

          and yet Google is a huge profitable company. It's almost like hiring "The Best of the Best" isn't a requirement for success...

          Solution: Have actual technical folks review candidates. All candidates at $DAYJOB screened by senior/principal staff

          Worked at a place with similar issues. Interesting thing is we had 3rd party recruiter too since main recruiting team was too small
