whoof.
conversational style interviews can go wrong quickly though; i recently interviewed for a position where the conversation turned into the interviewer explaining how he'd connected everything in his rv to home assistant. i'm not really into home automation but the communication bit was at least interesting until he dropped that he'd let claude do everything and he didn't actually care how it worked.
😱
I hired someone that recently put up PRs and when I asked what they were for, he had no idea ... he hasn't ran or tested a single one ... just vibing everything.
When I saw his Terraform PRs ... I was like, "show me how you run this". I shortly found out he never had Terraform installed and didn't know how to switch AWS profile at all. He let's AI do everything. Also, he kept sending me AI convos and I was like, "if you send me another one without reading it first and summarizing it for me, I'm going to lose my shit". He said, "I wanted to send you the proof" ... I said, "you sent me half a page of nonsense where you didn't respect my time enough to read yourself first"
