As an interviewee: online coding quiz while on the phone with interviewer who’s screen mirroring the quiz. I found this an unnatural and unnerving way to write code with someone looking over my shoulder, and made mistakes I wouldn’t otherwise simply due to nerves. Also, rapid fire probability questions. I doubt these have any bearing to any job function anywhere.
