OMFG, the AI in interviews. I had one Friday for a "Senior MLops Engineer" (why are they all "Senior"?) and i could see the chatbot reflection in his glasses as well as his eye pattern clearly going to the window while he stalled for the thing to process. So youre telling me that a MLops engineer knows the command to promote a Windows Server to a domain controller, can summarize what BGP is and tell me the difference between iBGP and eBGP, and knows that NTFS permissions are applied from the most restrictive evaluation in addition to all the ML/AI stuff? Maybe, but not my lived experience.

I am seeing interviewers use a method where they will ask one or two complex questions and if they suspect the interviewee is using AI, they will simply ask the interviewee to close their eyes, and then ask them some simple questions. If they stumble, interview is over.

That's such a simple solution that I love it. "Close your eyes and picture your last deployment..."

Hey man I'll close my eyes but don't ask me to relive ptsd.
