WTF with high school questions?
Why do recruiters have such trouble with such a simple task like gauging a candidate's real skills?<p>Seriously. Here is how to do it.<p>I'm looking for a React Developer, I ask the following simple questions:<p>1. Tell my about your contributions to major projects you have been involved in.
(if they share their work ask more in-depth questions about it)<p>2. With $givenTechnologyStack, how do you usually solve state management / routing / styling / responsiveness / SEO / performance / security / validation...?<p>3. Why do you think, concretely, that you can help solve our problem?<p>Any experienced interviewer will know by the answers if they're dealing with a pretender or the real deal.<p>Edit: I know recruiters don't have in-depth technical knowledge they should simply forward the few interesting candidates to tech. If you have time for 5 rounds of nonsense you have time for 1 round of quality interviews.
