How are you going to prove they did it? And in the age of AI, I expect developers to use AI to code.
That gets back to why a system like this is worthless, statistics are that people only spend 6 seconds on a resume before they decide to interview a candidate, they definitely aren’t going to take time to look at a resume. They are definitely not going to look at a GitHub profile or a third party site.
I have an anecdote from both sides.
When I left Amazon in 2023, I interviewed for a position as an architect for a company where I would be responsible for leading the integration of all the companies they acquired. I was interviewing with the director and he did his standard spiel about what the company does and some of the architecture.
I knew he hadn’t looked at my resume then. I was the architect for one of their most recent acquisitions and he was explaining the system I designed and that was clear on my resume. I had left the company to work for AWS in 2020 and I was referred by a former manager that was still there.
On my side, I never look at resumes, I don’t really care what technology you know. AI can write code and you can learn new technology. I want to know how you think through problems, how you learn, how you adapt and how you troubleshoot.
I go into every interview purposefully blind.
