Yeah, I have always thought the interview process is a bit BS as it always puts interpersonal skills over technical skills, even for positions where interpersonal skills aren’t needed.
I as both an employee and someone hiring would rather be able to hire 4 people for a week or two with them knowing only one person will get the job. I think in today’s labor market people would jump at that and it gives opportunities for weaker candidates to learn what they need to learn. Culturally it would be hard to get a company to adapt to a model like that, and it probably goes against labor rules in a handful of states.
