I've been doing vibe code interviews for nearly a year now. Most people are surprisingly bad with AI tools. We specifically ask them to bring their preferred tool, yet 20–30% still just copy-paste code from ChatGPT.

fun stats: corelation is real, people who were good at vibe code, also had offer(s) with other companies that didn't run vibe code interviews.

Interesting you say that, feels like when people were too stupid to google things and "googling something" was a skill that some had and others didn't.

Copy pasting from chatgpt is the most secure option.

Not going from home is the most secure way of going out.

It doesn’t work you can’t be productive without agent capable of doing queries to db etc

What? I can't parse this sentence. Maybe get an ai to rewrite it?

Also the method that will result in the higher quality codebase.

Sounds great to me. Leetcode is outdated and heavily abused by people who share the questions ahead of time in various forums and chats.

From what I've heard, what few interviews there are for software engineers these days, they do have you use models and see how quickly you can build things.

The interviews I’ve given have asked about how control for AI slop without hurting your colleagues feelings. Anyone can prompt and build, the harder part, as usual for business, is knowing how and when to say, ‘no.’
