Also how am I supposed to filter the 100's of AI-completed assessments? Who gets this opportunity?
We also did not require the employers doing the interview to be our most senior team members. They probably did it more often than most people, but often because they volunteered to do it. Anyone on the team would be part of the loop, which helped with scheduling. And, remember, we were working on actual tickets, so in a lot of cases it actually helped having the candidate there as a pairing partner.
For a little extra detail, the way we actually did it was to have 2-3 pairing sessions of up to 2 hours apiece. At the end of the day, all the team members who paired with the candidate had to give them the thumbs up.
Idk if I'm even being sarcastic here.
