I guess 5 rounds of 90 minutes long multi-stage interview process is much more efficient, where people selling an idealised version of themselves in imaginary scenarios.

Also talking to HR/recruitment department, who has no idea of the actual job is a great way to find the right candidate.

...its ridiculous

I hate interviews. I've been on both sides and neither is fun.

One person is pretending to be what they think the employer wants. The other is trying to figure out who's the least full of shit.

I just generally hate situations where everybody is expected to be fake, and not playing the "right character" will get you shunned.
